Snow Days


Before we headed up to SLC for Christmas, Hannah talked a lot about building a snowman while we were there. We told her if it snowed we would do it. So, when we arrived there was snow on the ground, but we had to inform her that it was old snow and hard and we wouldn't be able to make a snowman out of it. But the good news is that we got a lot of fresh snow while we were there, so Dad and girls headed out to build Hannah a snowman. Well actually a snow MInnie Mouse.

They made a snow man that quickly turned into Minnie Mouse. Hannah was so proud of it! Ella loved being out in the snow even though she refused to wear a coat (she always does). So, Ella was outside in 20 degree weather for about 45 mins without a coat. Only gloves and a hat to keep her warm (which she was not). When I went out to join them, she was shivering and blue. I was finally able to convince her to come inside. I swear that girl is such a kick. Honestly!

I do wish we had snow (only briefly), so Hannah could build more snowman. She talks about it all the time! She kept asking for coal and a button for the eyes and nose. We told her rocks would have to do.

First, Hannah's curls looks so beautiful in these pictures with how they peek out of her beanie. And I love that Ella is always wanting to be in the cold but never wants to wear her coat. She has to do things her own way in everything.
