Spring = Snow????

We had the pleasure (insert sarcasm) of waking up to 6 new inches of snow this morning. What is going on with our weather? Just a week ago we were hanging out at the park and playing on the swings. Today, we were stuck inside because the snowplow made a mountain at the end of our driveway and we couldn't get out. Luckily, I think it will melt pretty quickly since warmer temperatures are forecasted for next week.

Graham was watching Annie run through the snow. Notice how he's drinking his juice with no hands? That's his new thing...he just holds the straw with his teeth which apparently leaves his hands free for more important things.

When Jeff got home from work, we decided to try taking Graham outside to play in the snow. He made it very clear to us in December that he hated that cold white stuff. We're hoping that today was our last chance to play in the snow for the season so outside we went. Graham shocked both of us because he LOVED it and actually became annoyed with me when I took him inside!

Crawling through the snow!

Checking out the snow on the tree


Sled ride compliments of Daddy! When Jeff became tired of running through the snow pulling the sled and stopped for a break Graham started to yell...apparently he wants to be in charge of how long his rides last!
When we finally came inside to warm up, Graham discovered a new game. Jeff is always bringing home treats from General Mills for us to try and this week we got microwave popcorn...boxes and boxes of microwave popcorn...enough popcorn for Graham to build a skyscraper!
His building project begins...


Still in the early stages, but coming along...


Graham's skyscraper...he would happily knock it down and rebuild it several time this evening!
