Snow Day

by Julia 1/8/2011 7:42:07 PM

Today we woke up to the perfect snow day, lots of soft fresh snow was falling down all morning while the wind-chill was extremely low. And so instead of dragging the girls to spend an hour at gymnastics (which this session we are not completely pleased with, so we’ll be pulling them out by the end of January), we took them for an hour of snow play.

 

They rolled in it. They played in it. They laid in it. They made snow angels and threw handfuls of snow at one another. They even ate some of it, I think. Veronika’s cheeks were rosy red but neither one wanted to go home. They had a blast.

They were finally convinced bribed to come back home by mentioning hot chocolate with marshmallows (or warmed up chocolate milk for Veronika who prefers that). Perfect way to warm up after an hour in the snow.
