First Snow Day 2013

This was the scene the day after Quin's birthday party! We got lots of snow and the boys were SO excited!!!! When Quin saw the snow, he immediately ran to look under the Christmas tree. Talk about a disappointed little boy! I guess to him snow=Christmas=presents! He got over it quickly after he found out we got to go play in the snow. We bundled the boys up and figured they'd last only a few minutes due to the bitterly cold temperatures. We were wrong. They pretty much stayed outside all day, with only a few breaks to warm up by the fire. This was my most favorite day. We stayed in our PJ's (my robe), drank coffee and hot chocolate, had the fire going all day, played a few games here and there and watched a movie or 2. A perfect family day! That afternoon, daddy got out there and helped the boys build an awesome snowman. Our daddy has SO many talents, and building snowmen is definitely one of them!

 Our sweet neighbors had all the kids on our block over for hot cocoa, cookies, and a Christmas movie. They had a blast and we thought it was the neatest idea! They all get along so well and we are so thankful to have friends who live just doors away from us. So neat to get to do life with them!

The girls:

Keep your eyes open for a wedding invitation for these 2. They are equally smitten with each other, and the parents are hoping they stay that way until they are 25 and old enough to get married!
