It has been snowing here for about a week. YAY! After living in Texas for 3 years it is nice to have a really white Christmas! NAthan has been so funny though. It really is his first snow ever and he loves it, but every time we go out he puts his bare hands in the snow and ends up crying. It has been fun to have the snow, but it has been soo windy that every time we go out it is bitterly cold. Every day after school I told the boys they would have to build a snow man before being allowed to watch tv or play computer, but once we get out there and I realize it is 15 degrees out and very windy I relent and let them come in. Today Justin finally got them outside playing and it really was one of the coldest days we've had with a bitter wind blowing snow everywhere. We got everyone dressed in their snow pants and boots, gloves, hats, coats. Then of course, Michelle started crying and I had to take her back in. The others however had a fun time building a fort under the trampoline. The wind had blown a bunch of snow up to the top of the tramp on one side and they just added more snow till they had a little shelter built up that protects them from the wind. It is really pretty cool. There is just something so wonderful about dads. I honestly have tried to get them to play in the snow all week, but when dad suggests building fort, all the sudden everyone is interested and gets all dressed by themselves and plays. I'm so grateful for Justin. He really is a good dad.
