It Snowed...Finally!!!

Randomness At The House!

Ever have one of those days where the world takes over and you can't seem to get ahead? That is pretty much every day in The House of Sprout...but Saturday was pretty extreme and I thought I should share a few visions with the bloggy world!

The pile of cuddle blankets on the couch...

Cheerios on the slide we keep inside the house when it's too cold to play outside...

Remnants of the cupcakes that certain children were told NOT to eat...

The groceries Daddy so helpfully carried in from the car so I could rest my shoulder...

***************************

Then some randomness...

The snowman Daddy and the kids built

(using their snowman kits from Auntie M and Uncle C!)

Tater rolling the head!

(Love the expression!)

And the dinosaur dirt cups I made for Bruiser's party...there was even a dinosaur "egg" (aka gumball) buried in the dirt!

A Sledding We Will Go!!!

We decided to brave the local sledding hill this afternoon before the chilly weather hits tomorrow. Everyone was excited to go but mixed emotions arose as we ventured out!

Sassy is a princess...and we are okay with that!

Sledding all alone!

Daddy in the tunnel slide!

Tater!

And Sassy realized she was in the snow...again!

Tater had a blast!

Bruiser refused to sled for most of the time...but loved exploring in the snow!

I even went for a ride!

Sassy's happy spot!

Exploring with Daddy

Tater made a friend...our social butterfly!

Sassy remembered where she was...yet again!

Daddy!

Bruiser gave in and went for a few rides!

It was a fun family afternoon...and we were happy to discover that all three were at an age where we could do this type of thing without a lot of stress! The best part? The yummy coffee Mommy and Daddy stopped for on the way home!

"We Want to Play in the Snow!!!!!!"

Which translates to "Mommy, spend 30 minutes dressing us all, put Sassy's mittens on 5 times, then come outside with us for 5 minutes until we are too cold, drag Bruiser inside because he wants to be just like Daddy and push his lawnmower like a snow blower, and then undress us as quickly as possible so the whining stops, and make us hot chocolate that is not hot!"

Yes, that was about an hour of my snow day!

All bundled up!

Sassy "What are they doing?"

Sassy "Why am I the only one now?"

Okay, Sassy DID NOT like the snow!

Probably because she couldn't walk with falling!

Poor thing!

Snow angel...how appropriate!

Still not liking it!

"Why do you keep taking my picture instead of helping me???"

"HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

Okay, this is a little better!

Maybe a bit fun?

The snow princess

Does she look pitiful enough?

Making tracks!

Building snowballs!

The damage

Looks happy, doesn't he?

Action shot...right before he attempted to throw a shovelful of snow at me!

How did you spend your "snow day"?
