First Snow

We woke up Saturday morning, October 10, to snow. Sadie was beside herself with excitement. She kept going on and on about all of the things that she was going to do in the snow. She even woke me up and invited me to go outside and play in the snow with her at 6:00 in the morning!! Needless to say she had to wait a little bit before she could have her snow play, but she got it. First thing we did was go shopping for a winter coat for Sadie. As you can tell by these pictures, she still doesn't have one and was forced to wear her spring rain coat with lots of layers underneath. It turns out that 2T is a very popular size...

The kids had to go sledding. I think the people in Bemidji were thinking that the people with the Ohio license plate were crazy for sledding when there was barely any snow on the ground. Not to mention that the wind was blowing a gazillion miles an hour and it was cold especially when you don't have a winter coat! But, we did it anyways.

Sadie and dad built this lovely snowman family. I'm the one with the crazy hair!

The snow has since melted and it's supposed to be in the fifties this weekend with the sun shining. WooHoo!! The snow can wait awhile before it sticks around for good.
