Snow Day

We had so much fun in are snow this past weekend. We got about 7 inches in Athens, which is quite the big deal for us. Esther had read about snow and see it on movies, but this was her first 'real deal'. She loved it! We had a hard time explaining why she couldn't stay out there for hours. The main reason being, we had no power for a good 26+ hours. With no way to warm up, we only let her play for a few hours. She had a blast building a snowman, sledding, and throwing snowballs. We still have a good bit of snow in the yard, but it is mushy and has lost its luster.

The scarf E asked for and I made in cold hours of the morning. As usual, she hates posing.

Cuddling to stay warm

Playing blocks by candle and flashlight. Entertaining w/out lights for the few hours before bedtime was the hardest part.

I love her laugh - pure joy!
