First Snow.

We were graced with the first snow of the year yesterday.  It was just a dusting and didn't last very long.  As soon as the kids saw that it was snowing they wanted to go out and  catch snowflakes on their tongues.  This turned into eating the snow off the ground; yummy.  I remember how exciting the first snow was when I was a kid!  It's still kind of exciting; although now it means shoveling, cold, and more shoveling.
This picture doesn't show it, but it is snowing very lightly.  Too funny.

It was sort of funny because the kids were outside for about 30 minutes and then ready to come back inside.  It had stopped snowing, the sun had come out, and the few snowflakes on the ground were nowhere to be seen.  The kids noses were red and as soon as I told them that, they asked for hot cocoa!  So they had some hot cocoa and talked excitedly about the snow.  Kenzie was napping during the first snow and I was doing things around my warm house while keeping an eye outside!  Love these cute little munchkins!
