Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

It began to snow Friday evening and the kids wanted out immediately. We put on all the gear and went out into the cold, dark, snowy night. Sloane wanted to help Aron shovel while Russell had fun climbing his man made mountain in the backyard. The snow continued until Sunday morning. We ended up with at least 6 inches. The kids played outside each day, loving every minute of the fresh air. While indoors, we kept busy by playing make believe in our basement. Russell pretends the pantry is his school. He puts on his backpack filled with all the essentials and heads into "school." I can hear him teaching his friends about letters and numbers and also about school rules. It is so adorable. I should really tape record it. Sloane's make believe is circled around her baby dolls, grocery cart, and play kitchen. She spends hours pushing her cart around, loading and unloading it. We just ended our weekend with an episode of Curious George while munching on popcorn (a favorite snack for all of us)!

Sloane was persistent while trying to keep up with Daddy.

"I'm the king of the mountain!"

In this picture, Sloane has a graham cracker. She is hiding behind the trash can in hopes that Mac won't find her until the cracker is gone. He is famous for stealing her snacks.

A delicious ending to our home bound weekend!
