Cash and Baylen were both very excited last Friday when they woke up to more snow! As soon as their breakfast was finished, both of the boys were ready to go out in the snow ('no to Cash, as he doesn't really say his two-letter blends). Heath had his early morning PM meeting (had to be in Nashville at seven), so it was just me and the boys.
Obviously, I wasn't moving fast enough for Baylen. He still had his jammie bottoms on, but was ready for his hat and mittens!
There's just something about little ones in snow bibs. It's just too adorable!
Cash loved his, too. The night before they had fought the idea of these pants, but after seeing how warm and water proof they were, both were ready to slide them on.
We headed out the backdoor, making sure we had our sled. Both boys got on, and I drug the (heavy) sled around the side of the house towards the slopes near the fencerow. When we got to a good spot, Cash wanted off, and B and I slid down. He loved it! The second time, Cash got on, too. We didn't go as fast - maybe because the weight of the sled was too much for the little snow we had. A few more times down some hills, and then they were ready to play and explore.
B decided he wanted to pull the wagon around the yard. I tried hard not to think about what this was doing to our not-so-established yard.
Cash tried hard to get Ruth in the sled. He wanted to pull her around, but had no success. So he just pulled the empty sled around for a bit.
I pulled Baylen around in the wagon, thinking there's just not enough snow ('no) to have a great deal of fun.
That's when my boys' true side came out, and they disappeared in the garage and found their machines. Of course, they could work in the snow, too!
They played for quite awhile scooping up the snow and making piles. Love their dedication to their machines, no matter the weather!
Cash got he "car tuck in the snow." (I had told them earlier that Heath did some spinning trying to get up the driveway that morning. I guess their car was having some difficulty, too.)
And, yes, the shovels came out, too.
The roller made some fun imprints in the snow, and...
so did we! They loved making snow angels with me.
I looked over to find B like this. He was getting tired. We had been outside for over an hour.
So we retreated to the warm house where we made some hot chocolate complete with marshmallows! What a super fun day in the 'no!

The next morning i saw the snow angel marks and thought for just a second that they looked like deer beds. You see where my mind is.
