First (real) Snow!

That freak storm we had back in October didn't really count. Two weeks ago yesterday we got out first light dusting. We were all so excited to get dressed up in our snow clothes and boots and go out in it.

Ok your turn!
 

 Poor Leyla. I ordered her winter coat during a big online sale and it came sized for a kindergartner. It doesn't help that she's such a little peanut anyway. Her snow boots are a size larger than she wears because it was tough finding reasonably priced snow boots in a size 4 (most kids shoes start at 5). The good news- she'll be able to wear all this stuff again next year for sure! The bad news- this year she looks (and waddles) like a bit of an Oompa loompa. She's pretty easy going though and didn't seem to notice. I couldn't find her hat that morning so she's wearing Connor's old one.

That Friday night into Saturday it really came down. My favorite view to wake up to!


Andrew had just had a half cord of wood delivered to our front steps (we've been enjoying fires every night since!) It looked so pretty in the snow.
From our front door.

Pretty right?
