Snow Fun

I finished editing the photos from our trip to Idaho this afternoon and thought I'd share some photos of the kids playing in the snow. Nampa got snow the day after Portland did so we didn't miss the white stuff while we were gone. Grace and Ethan loved to eat the snow, preferring to lick it off the railing to waiting for a snowflake to fall on their tongue!

David, Grace, and I made a snowman during Ethan's nap one day. David did most of the work, I was manning the camera after all! Grace loved putting the carrot nose and blue bucket hat on the snowman. The eyes are made of leaves and his smile is a twig. Sadly, Frosty did not survive the first night. The wind and rain was too strong and knocked poor Frosty down. He was fun while he lasted.

You may be wondering why Grace is wearing cupcake pajamas to play in the snow. That would be because we didn't bring many pants (she only wears dresses remember?!?) so we did the best we could. I made her wear tights and another pair of pajama pants under them as well. Naturally, the snow pants were left at home.
