Snow Fun part 2

Snow day part 2 was so special. Paul was given the day off becuase of the weather so he was able to enjoy this fun day with us. It was even more special because it was Sawyers Valentines party day at school, so Paul surprised Sawyer by coming to his party. Sawyer loved having daddy at school with him. After school we went home and played in the snow. We built Sawyers first snowman, made snow angels and had a couple snowball fights. Not only was it a fun snow day but one for the record books( for Texas). The Dallas area got a Whoppin' 12.5" of snow, the most ever. We had so much fun being a part of Texas history :) There are so many pictures to look at, I probably could have made 3 posts, but you will just have to endure. Good luck and enjoy!

Snow Day Fun.....Part 1

Yesterday was such a fun day. It had snowed the night before and everything was covered in white. It was so beautiful. We headed out to play before Paul had to go to work and Sawyer had to go to school. Can you believe Sawyer had school? If you would have asked me 2 years ago if I ever thought I would have to take my kid to school in the snow, I probably would have laughed and for sure said NO. Over the past 2 years I have learned to never say never. Sawyer LOVED driving to school in the snow. He was staring out his window in awe. He kept saying ,"Thank you God for this beautiful snow." It was so sweet and a memory I never want to forget.
The weather ended up being so bad that Paul was given the day off. So I have so many pictures of us playing in the snow after school too. SO many, that I had to break them up into 2 different posts. The first post are the pictures taken before school, and the second post will be the pics of us after school. Be warned there are a ton of pictures. Enjoy!
