Snow Day

We borrowed some snow pants from a friend and our daughter told me, "those hurt when I wear them!". She whine a bit and then I just sort of made her wear them -- we were going outside and we all needed some fresh air, so she just didn't have a choice in the matter.

She looks pretty happy here, doesn't she? I don't think she minded the pants once they were on her legs!

Then, she had a BLAST outside! Throwing snowballs at daddy, falling in the snow and somehow falling on her face on the driveway -- notice the dirt around her mouth? I didn't actually see the fall, just heard about it afterwards....

We ended up staying outside for an hour and had a great time -- it was about 50 degrees outside, so we took advantage of the nice weather.

These photos are from yesterday (Saturday). Today, Sunday, the snow is completely melted...welcome to Illinois weather!
