1st Snow Storm 2011

Ainsley has been so disappointed in our winter this year. She says it's just not winter without snow. Well, now we have snow and a lot of it! This was the first true snow storm of the season for us, we got about 6-8 inches in about a day. The temperatures are getting ready to turn bitter cold so before that happens we all went out for a romp in the snow.

Andrew's first snow suit experience!

He loved the snow and enjoyed our hike as long as I was carrying him. He had a hard time walking in the boots. Then, we got out the dump truck and shovel and he loved it even more. It was enough to keep him occupied while we shoveled the drive.

SInce it didn't look like we would be in for a bad winter I didn't purchase a new snow suit for Ainsley this year. So, we are making due with our old pant and mismatched coat. Thankfully the pants are just long enough to cover the boots. We are definitely in need of a new snow suit for next year though.

Ainsley could have stayed out in the snow all day. But eventually the snow did make its way into her boots and her feet got cold. I think Ruby took a cue from Ainsley and decided she loved the snow just as much too!
