Snow Day!

Well, as close as we usually get here in NC.  We started our little snow day out by having homemade chocolate chip muffins for breakfast.  Even little Riley got to enjoy a muffin!

 Then, when Riley went down for a nap, I bundled up the big kids and took them outside to see the snow.  There wasn't even enough to play with, but they had fun making the snow crunch under their feet. 

 Max found a snowy leaf in the yard.  We tried to capture the way it sparkled in the sunshine, but it didn't really work!

  After we warmed up with some nice homemade hot chocolate, we made snow pictures with glue and salt.  Max made a snowman, and Alexis's was more of a free-form art.  We don't get very many snow days around here, so I made the most of the little dusting we did get.  Thanks to Riley for napping so long that we got to have so much fun.
