Snow Day :)

This morning we woke up to a beautiful present from God...SNOW! And lots of it! These pictures were taken around 9-10:00 am and we had around 2-3 inches by this point. At the time I'm writing this it's 2:45 and we have 4-5 inches and it's STILL snowing..yippee! The boys are napping but as soon as Hooper wakes up we'll be back out in it I'm sure. We played about an hour this morning and it was still a fight to get him to come in. Yes, he's had a small cold this week already but Dee and I discussed it and we both decided it would be considered child abuse if we didn't let Hooper go and play. Here are some pictures from this mornings FUN!

Yes, he's totally decked out in TN even when it's cold. Here's the attire: 1st layer: socks & Tenn. flannel onesie pj's with feet 2nd layer: Tenn sweatshirt with thick flannel pants, 3rd layer lined wind pants, gloves, taboggin, another pair of socks (that's 3 layers on his feet now) his HUGE, thick coat and rain boots. We played over an hour and he never got cold other than this rosey cheeks. When we came in and stripped him nothing was cold, his hands were even warm and he still somehow managed to move around quiet well, ha!
I think his tricycle needed some digging out.
William joined in on the fun but only for a few minutes. He said it was too cold.


Here's a shot of our house. It was hard to get because the camera lens kept fogging up.

Hooper's FIRST snowman. He had a BLAST building it and took it quiet seriously!

2 out of 3 of my favorite boys!
My sweet husband worked from home today due to the weather, but took a few breaks to go and play.
Love this picture...and these boys!
Dee wanted a shot of the two of us to prove that I do exist, ha.
You may be asking "where is Neyland during all this?" Well he was napping. After he woke up Dee went in to take care of him and let me play more with Hooper. He's so great!
Hooper wanted to include them in as much as he could so he was talking to them through the screen.
If you look hard you can see Dee and Neyland through the screen.
After building the snowman in the front yard Hooper wanted to build another in the back. Unfortunately he wanted to beat this one like a pinata...so I let him burn as much energy as he wanted to off. The interesting thing here....the snowman's hat is a Tiger Woods hat and he had golf clubs for arms. Seems appropriate that he's getting beatin' doesn't it?

Neyland was hungry from all the fun...well watching it at least so he decided it was time to eat. Look at how sweet this little guy is?
Stay tuned for more after the boys nap. It's still snowing!
