First Snow...

Jaxon in the snow

Steady Baylor..

Jaxon in the snow!

Can we go yet?

Baylor anticipating snow!

Jaxon ready for snow or something...

Early this week they started predicting snow. We told you that you may not have school on Thursday and you informed us you would need hats and gloves to play in the snow. The past few years we really haven't had that much snow and you were always content looking at the snow so you had never really played in the snow. I knew this year would be different.

Sleet began to fall late Wednesday and Thursday morning. Of course two inches of ice to you looked like a good time. We really had to convince you to wait. Snow began to fall about 3:30 on Thursday afternoon. We convinced you that we should wait till the next day after all of the snow had fallen. It wasn't easy. We broke into an early Christmas gift: hats and gloves and you wore those in the house most of the night.

Friday morning, the first thing Delaney said was "mom, it's stopped snowing! There is giant snow out there." (We received about 10 inches. We finally got you all bundled up. I had at least 4 layers of clothes on you, which your Dad made fun of me about. I made you take your picture before we left to play in the snow which you were not happy about.

Baylor seemed to take to the snow the best at first and Jaxon was a little uneasy and timid but it soon reversed. Baylor wanted me to carry him and Jaxon did good trapcing through the snow. Delaney kept loosing her shoe so Daddy had to carry her at times. Unfortunately, the snow was very powdery so we were not able to build a snowman which upset Baylor very much. Daddy said, "maybe tomorrow"...
