I suppose it'll have to do

We got a dusting of snow last night...our 3rd dusting of the year.  We've had no real snowfalls yet, which is a bit disappointing.  But I decided to take the kids on a little walk with their snow boots and gloves anyway.  Of course, I didn't remember I had their gloves in my coat pockets until halfway through the walk...lol  Poor little cold fingers.

Erin insisted on bringing her umbrella

Patrick kept running through the snow yelling "Doe! Doe! Doe!" (or "go! go! go!" )

He loved seeing the snow on his boots

Sometimes my shadow is the only way I get into pictures

I love Erin's boot prints

Erin told me this was "dinosaur snow" and told me to take a picture. And then she stepped on it before I could.

They were excited when we reached the playground.  Because of the shadows of the buildings around it, there was more snow

Patrick did his usual playing with the gravel thing.

And I wrote Cora's name in the snow

Which made Erin want to draw

She said this was a bird

and this was a fish

and then I showed Patrick he could throw snow

and now we're home and eating lunch and warming up fingers and toes.
