A Real Winter!

In all the years we've been here we've seen snow I think a grand total of 3 days. But this year we've had a real winter! We've had snow off and on since November and it's actually been staying on the ground. The boys have had a great time playing out in the snow though they've been house-bound for over a week now with colds.

Sebastien's first time ever playing in the snow! He was having a little bit of trouble getting used to walking in it.

Bixente has been completely thrilled with the snow. If he could we'd be out in it all day every day. What a fun little boy!

If you click and enlarge this picture you will see the huge grin on Sebastien's sweet little face!

He decided it was much easier just to sit down and scoop the snow with his hands then try and keep up with his big brother.

The first day the snow came down it was so powdery that we couldn't make any snowmen. But after a few days the sun melted it just enough that we were able to make a few. The boys and I had a great time playing in the snow each day while we waited for Papa to come home from work.
