A few weeks ago we headed up to Boone to see Granny and Gramps. We were really excited because snow was in the forecast (the perfect kind....not too much, but enough to play in it!), and at that point we hadn't seen any snow all winter! Of course it was also the coldest weekend I can remember - at one point with the wind chill it was between -5 and -10. Brrrr!
The first day out in the snow was tolerable (in regard to the temperature), but the second day was brutal. We got about two feet out the door, and Landon's face literally looked like it was frozen. He decided right then and there that he wanted to go back inside. Brandon and I stayed out with Grady for about 10 more minutes, but that was about all we could take. It was SO cold!
Saying goodbye after a great weekend....
And just a week or so later, we finally got our own snow! It wasn't much, but it was still nice to see. It literally melted within hours! (You can kind of see my daffodils in the background....that's because just a few days prior it was 70 degrees! Lucily, they survived the snow!)
And somewhere in between the two snows we celebrated Valentine's Day. At preschool they had "Pancakes and Pajamas Day," so all the kids got to wear their pajamas to school, have pancakes and pass out and collect their Valentine's cards. It was really adorable! Here is Grady after we got home....
Here were the little Valentine's treats we made for his classmates. I found this idea online and thought they were so cute. It reads, "You're a Super Friend!" This one shown below was made for Landon, so it says, "You're a Super Brother!" :)
