It's the weekend before Christmas and the kids are so excited it's tons of fun to watch and experience! In addition to the Christmas excitement, we've also been experiencing new snow excitement. This past Friday we were blanketed with more than 4 inches of fabulously beautiful snow! As a result I was gifted with a snow day and the chance to spend the day with the kids. We baked cookies and cleaned the house and finally headed out into the white stuff.
There were mixed emotions from Nicholas and Addison. Nicholas LOVED the snow! He had a great time playing in and trying to make a snow fort and some snowballs. Addison HATED it! She hated it so much it was a little comical to watch. We didn't stay out long, just long enough for Addison to reach severe meltdown point!!

After having a lovely snow day at home, today we headed to my Aunt and Uncle's house to celebrate Christmas with my dad's side of the family. We had such a nice time spending the day with all of my aunts, uncles, cousins and my grandpa. We enjoyed tons of food, exchanging gifts and lots of company and quality family time!! Nicholas was lucky enough to have my cousin Andrew offer to take him outside into the snow. Andrew taught Nicholas how to sled and even do some mock snowboarding. Nicholas had a ball!!

OMG- those pix of Addie in the snow are priceless! LOL!!!
LOVE the melt down pics! We haven't took Tommy out in the snow yet, but I imagine his reaction won't be much different.
