Snow Much Fun

We have been able to relax and enjoy the last few days of winter break. It would have been nice to have more days to relax and not be sick, but at least we had the last few days to do so! It was worth it! We are not looking forward to returning to the routine though! Jesstine goes back to school tomorrow and Stephen goes back to work. I go back to work on Thursday.

It snowed a little here on New Year's Eve, but it melted away rather quickly. As it got colder later in the day it started to snow again though. We laid low for New Year's although Stephen and I were FINALLY able to go on a date together! We went to dinner and a movie, "Les Miserables." It was a nice evening! The next day, the kids let us sleep in until 9ish! Here are a few pics of the kids and the snow (it snowed a LOT New Year's Day) and us on our date!

Emmitt watching it snow while he ate breakfast.

Date night dinner at Red Bean's (a local cajun joint).

My attempt at a sibling snow picture.

Making a snow angel!

Not sure why, but I really like this shot.

Not really digging the snow thing.

Getting a little more adventuresome.

Mommy makes things all better!

Going to try the snow packed slide.

Going for it!

Was trying to capture the snow on his eyelashes!

Taste test.

Helping Daddy pick up lights.

 Snow day picnic in the front room. Yummy grilled cheese, peas, and bananas!

Jesstine and I went back out later to attempt a snowman. Not the right kind of snow unfortunately!

Great for snow angels though!

Her favorite thing was throwing snow up in the air and pretending it was snowing.

 And of course what good is snow if you don't make snow ice cream and top it with sprinkles??
