White and Wintery

Yesterday it snowed and snowed  and snowed. The kids were immediately excited when they woke up and saw the ground covered with white fluffy stuff. They don't get to play in much snow because when we do actually get snow someone is usually sick or it is blizzard like conditions out. Yesterday I decided that since everyone had stayed well for the most part and it was just a nice falling snow and no bitter wind it would be good for them to get out for some fresh air and play in it. After getting bundled in lots of layers they headed out. They stomped around, threw snow, ate it and made snow angels. The snow was really fluffy and must have been comfortable because every time Eliad would lay down to make a snow angle he would stop moving for a bit and just lay there with his eyes closed, ha! Their layers must have must have done a good job because Eliad was out for an hour before he was cold enough to come in. Shortly after he came in Elee followed but I finally had to call Ardon after an hour and a half, he loved being out in the snow and I think he ate as much as he threw. I got a fire going while they were playing so they would be able to thaw out next to it when they came in. After getting into dry clothes it seemed like a good time for hot chocolate and naps all snuggled up under some nice, warm blankets.
