Winter Wonderland!

Wow!! It is not often that you see 4 inches of snow in Texas! The kids were so excited to see our street transformed into a Winter Wonderland!!

Dutchess didn't like having to go potty outside while it was snowing. I don't blame her, she came in all cold and wet! The snow started on Monday night and by Tuesday morning there was 4 inches on the ground!! School was delayed until 10 am so I woke the kids up at 7:45 and got them all ready to go out in to the snow!
The girls didn't stay out for long. They didn't like being cold! They walked around in the snow and in some parts, the snow was up to Lauren's knees! I put rainboots on the girls to try to protect their feet from getting wet and cold. I plan on buying Austin some rainboots!Austin played outside for 1 1/2 hours! He cleaned the snow off of my car, made snowballs and built a snowman. He didn't want to come inside to get ready for school. I told him he could play in the snow after school.Austin and Alyssa had a snowball fight as soon as she got to our house!After school, we all got bundled up and went outside for some more fun! Most of the snow melted by the time Austin got out of school...oops!! But their was just enough to have snowball fights and build a few snowmen! The kids sure had a blast in the winter snow! I am so glad that they got a chance to experience a white winter!
