2nd Snow Day

The boys had off from school again today.  But this time we got some real snow.  We got about 3" at our house but Nashville got closer to 8".  The rain took longer to change over to snow by us.

I took this picture a few hours before the snow stopped - we got about 1/2" more.


Everything was covered in pretty white snow :)


I bundled everyone up, including Grayson, and took them to the hill where we sled in our neighborhood.

Initially Gray was really curious about the snow.  But I put him down and after a step or two he fell over and put his face in the snow.  And he was done.  (It didn't help that the snow was blowing hard at us too.)


He mildly recovered as he watched the big boys sledding.


But then ... DONE!



Carter & Rylan:

I took Gray down a few times on the sled.  I couldn't tell his reaction, but he didn't cry.  I got Rylan to film us (excuse the gloves!):


I'm pretty sure Rylan was trying to get stuck in the bushes ...


Other neighbors were sledding around the hill but you could barely see them because the snow was coming down so hard.


The boys went outside a few more times today but I only took Gray out the one time.  He's still recovering from the virus that required us to do breathing treatments over the weekend - staying out in the cold for too long didn't seem like the best idea!  Brian was able to take a break from working to take the big boys sledding one more time before it got dark.  They were worn out tonight!!!

It's not supposed to get above freezing tomorrow so I don't think the snow is going anywhere for at least another day!
