Our Snowy Girls Weekend

This weekend we had lots of snowy fun! We had an awesome storm blow through and dump about 9 inches of snow over Friday and Saturday. We hardly had any snow last year, so this has been exciting for the kids. 
Adam had an exciting weekend of his own, but we will write about that later. Eric was up at school all weekend, so it was just us girls. 
On Saturday, when the snow started to let up, Tessa and I bundled up and headed outside for some snowy fun!
 Even all bundled up, something on Tess has to sparkle. She loves her sparkly pink boots.

 While Gwen napped, I shoveled the driveway while Tessa got right to work on her snow angels. It took me over an hour to shovel all that snow.



 Queen of our snow mountain!

 Once I had the driveway cleared, Tessa had some fun with her trusty red tricycle. 

Oh, that face!!! She just melts my heart! 
When Gwen woke up we got her bundled up and went back outside for more snow time. 
 This is Gwen's first time in snow. Between the deep snow and her puffy snowsuit, she couldn't move and she didn't like that very much. 



 No one was prepared for this amount of snow. We still had lots of toys in the backyard that are now buried.  Tessa had fun trying to find some of them. 
 We played a lot of "kitty lost in the snow". Tessa loves to pretend to be a cat. 
 There was so much snow on our back stairs, Tess just slid down them on her belly.
It's been a fun weekend with just my girls. They are both too cute for words!
