First snow of 2008

This afternoon (Monday 11.17.08) the snow started falling. Within a short period of time we had a white drive-way and some white grass. Jason got home and we quick bundled the kids up to go outside and play. It was perfect timing because we just got Celia's boots in the mail ($3.99 new LL Bean boots from Ebay) and I had just picked up hats and mittens from the consignment shoppe. At first they just stood in the snow, but soon started walking about. All their outdoor climbers, swings, etc were stored away this weekend. We have the sleds ready. Should be a fun winter. Nicholas hated to come back in, but we had warm chili for dinner. I think we ended up with a little less than an inch of snow. It will probably melt soon until it consistently stays below freezing and we can accumulate. Last winter was pretty rough and they're forecasting this winter to be pretty bad.




While our Chili was cooking for dinner we turned on the radio in the kitchen to the Christmas music. N&C have fun dancing with Jason and I to the music. Jason said it would be cute if they could dance together at my brother Matthew's wedding and so we wanted to see if they would. Well, they must've been practicing without us knowing because they knew how! So Nicholas and Celia danced while Jason and I danced. It was so cute we had to grab the camera!

  4. oh my gosh, I can't believe you have snow already! We are in shorts today :(. It looks like Christmas there, so nice and cozy! The dancing was so cute, I love it. Especially at the end when Nicholas was pushing Celia and she was giggling. That's what Kat would have done.

  6. Wow they danced together really well. Love Celia's hip movement there. Too cute with the kisses and hugs. I talked to your Mom while she was babysitting the other night and both Celia and Nicholas got on the phone a couple of times and said hi and animal sounds and bye bye. So sweet. Loved it. We have snow on this side of the lake too.

  7. This video is adorable! I think they will be cutting a rug at their uncle's wedding!!

    Looks like winter is starting early this year. We're down in the 30's already and that's odd for us. But hopefully it means we get more snow days for play! ;)
