snow!!

I must say, I was SO thankful that we were in Powhatan over the weekend (well, we didn't arrive until late Saturday night because we had a birthday party for a super sweet little girl to attend up here Saturday afternoon). I was invited to a bridal shower for a longtime friend of mine that was on Sunday and luckily, Daniel was off from work on Monday and the boys were off school also so it made it possible! It started snowing on Sunday after Daniel, the boys, and I were leaving breakfast after church with Daniel's dad. Nothing was really sticking right away so mom, Celia, and I headed off to the shower and left the guys at the house. We had a great time at the shower and can't wait for the wedding!

It started snowing pretty darn heavy around 7pm (ish)...and we were at Texas Roadhouse with Daniel's dad. I think it might've snowed around 2 inches while we were in there and the roads were covered when we left. It was definitely a LONG ride back to my parents' house!

Monday morning the boys were excited to play in the snow! When I had checked the weather report while I was packing our clothes for Virginia they were calling for less than an inch so though I did pack us warm clothes, jackets, hats, and gloves, I didn't pack snow suits or boots. In fact, I packed the boys each only 1 pair of shoes. Regardless, they had a BLAST!

 SNOW!!

Missy waiting to play.

She loved catching snowballs.

and didn't mind the splattering of snow in her mouth!

The boys really had a great time!!!





Jacob got Daniel with a snowball.

 Pa went after Jacob...and just plopped the snowball on his head!



So Zach went after Pa...



Then Zach went after Jacob...

Pa went after Zach too...





He was guilty of throwing a snowball at someone..


Zach "snuck" up on Jacob to put snow in his hood...
(which I later ended up picking up off of the floor in mom's house).








I asked the boys for one nice picture of the 2 of them together...
here's what I got:

My last attempt...just hug your brother!!
