Don't Eat the Yellow Snow

Winter weather finally arrived in Dallas! On Sunday a storm blew in and dumped 3 inches of snow in our back yard. Victoria and Bella were so excited to go outside! After eating some of the snow, Daddy tells the girls that the most important rule of snow is to never eat the yellow snow. I love the look on Bella 's face.


Bella was really interested in the feel of the snow. She had to take her gloves off and draw in it.
Slides go so much faster when they have snow on them.
We built a snow woman named Frenchy. She only lasted a couple of hours before the sun peeked out and she came crashing down.
Afterwards, we made hot cocoa and warmed our feet by the fire.
Round 2. The girls wanted to go out later that day. Campbell and Anderson came over and they had a snowball fight in the backyard, while all the parents watched from the warmth of the living room.
The girls tried to use the Mr. Turtle Sandbox lid as a sled in our backyard, but they didn't get very far.
Later that night, we invited Jay and Julie to come over for some chili. I remember the first snowfall that we had in our first house with our dear old neighbors- we made chili that night too and took turns "skiing" on our driveway with our shoes- fun! The girls had a blast playing in their jammies and eating yummy Truffle cookies that Julie brought over.
What personalities!
