Snow days

In February we have had a few small snow storms that are melted away within a day or two.

For Christmas the boys got a snow painting set that Wesley likes to use.

One afternoon Mark and Wesley got home from sledding and decided that they needed to clean the drive way off. Wesley is a great helper.

We bundled everyone up with this last ice/snow storm and headed outside to play.  This was the second time this year that the babies have been out in the snow.  They did not enjoy walking in the snow, touching the snow or riding on the sled.  I took the picture from behind because of the crying that was going on in the sled.  I took Evan and Luke in quickly after that. 

Of course after you play in the snow for just a few minutes you need to come in and warm up with a hot cup of hot chocolate.

Wesley got ready to go to school one morning and it was snowing/sleeting.  Before we left I caught Evan and Wesley watching it snow.

I decided that around lunchtime I needed to go get Wesley since we were getting a little more snow that I they said.  I didn't want the roads to get bad and have to get everyone out in that mess to pick up Wesley.  Once Evan and Luke went down for their nap Wesley and I played board games and he had some hot chocolate.

Our photographer had set up a few mini sessions in the snow since school was out.  I finally got in a picture with all three boys! All three boys did wonderful getting their picture taken, thank goodness the session was only 15 minutes because it was very cold. I am glad that we got out and braved the weather.
