Christmas Eve brought another blanket of snow to The Grove, it also brought a rather long trip back from Indiana. All the way home (all 4 1/2 hours of it) I thought about how mad I was at the fact it was snowing. I know, I was probably the only one, but after a delightful day of celebrating our Savior's birth we decided to venture out in the snow on the 26th. We took Lylah out to our farm, that happens to be for sale if anyone is interested ;), and found the perfect hill for Lylah's first sledding experience. To say she liked it was an understatement. She squealed and screamed with delight each time we slid down. Once we reached the bottom of the hill, she would promptly sign and say "more", well right after she ate a handful of snow.
We had so much fun that day that Lylah asked to go outside the next day and play in the "no" as she calls it. A lot of the snow had melted and she wanted to ride her push bike. She rode and rode it. After our long ride she took a break in her new rocking chair from our good buddies. Once she started to eat some "no" I gathered some up and we went inside for some "cooking". Lylah LOVED snow cream!! She kept taste testing it while we were making it, and then when it was finished she ate it all (I only helped a little) and cried when it was gone! We will definitely have to make more next time it snows!
Our final fun in the snow happened with Bebe, Poppy, Meme, and Bella!! First we took a walk and Lylah rode her push bike again. When we finished our walk we borrowed my neighbors sled. It is perfect for babies/toddlers. It sits up off the snow and has a back rest. Lylah and Bella had fun riding while Poppy and Phoebe pulled!!
So all in all the snow that I was hating on Christmas Even ended up being triple fun!! And we learned that our lil' lady is a real snow sweetie!!
What about you? Did you have any fun or not so fun snow adventures??
