I am starting to wonder if we still live in Nashville. For years and years, it was a big deal if we got an inch of snow, because it just didn’t happen very often. The last few years we have been getting more snow, and this year we have had several good snows (3-4inches) which is VERY strange for us. We LOVE it though! I especially love it because it means an extra day at home with my girl. I already know that we are out tomorrow too. We are supposed to get more snow overnight, so I’m not sure when I’ll go back to work. It started snowing around midnight last night and then we woke up to beautiful snow!
(WARNING: Lots and lots of pictures)
you can see how deep it was around her boots
watching Mommy make a snow angel, not sure what she thought about that….
We went in to warm up by the fire, and poor Daddy had to go to work.
Then Aunt Jenny and Mimi came over for more fun in the snow!
She really liked throwing snowballs.
and then we built a FROSTY!
She really liked that.
We attempted sledding on a lid with a little push from Mimi
It didn’t work that well, but Maya loved it anyway. She kept saying “MORE MORE”
then we made snow cream! I have never made it before and we are BIG FANS!
The recipe we used was a cup of milk, a tsp of vanilla, a 1/2 c. sugar. Blend that with a hand mixer, then add snow and stir in with a spoon until it’s like ice cream. The recipe also called for an egg, but not supposed to eat raw eggs pregnant, so we skipped that one. We LOVED it anyway!
More snow adventures tomorrow.
