Just like most of Alabama we experienced our first snow of the year and the most snow that I can remember in a long time. To say that Cole loved it is and understatement. He woke Friday morning wanting to go outside to play. I had to come in to work since weather conditions such as these aren't great for the insurance business but his Daddy came home around 11 to play. They loaded up and took Angela home and headed to Honey and Monts'. She has all the pictures of the snowman they built as well as pictures of Owen. They played for a little bit and then I got off work because of the roads and headed to Dax's parents'. Owen didn't care too much for the snow pelting him in the face nor the dogs all over him so we headed inside to warm up. We left Honey's to go home for naps but, of course, Cole was not having anything to do with a nap and insisted that he needed to play in "his" snow, so Dax put Owen down and the three of us headed back outside. It was so beautiful but I am glad we don't experience constantly like the people up north.
I had just thrown a snowball and hit Cole in the mouth. Ooops! Mom didn't mean to.
Tess loved the snow and couldn't get enough playtime in with Cole.
I was so impressed that Cole knew how to make a snow angel. That is one of the first things he did when he got outside.

Dad joined in the fun as well.
We measured because we are dorks like that. 4 inches around 2:30 so by that night it was close to 5 inches.
I love this photo! Very few times do I get a "real" smile from this one.
Trompin through the snow!

It just kept coming down!
