A Rare Richlands Snowfall

Snow falls in our neck of the woods just a few times a year, and even then, it doesn't always stick.  So Aiden, Audra, and Kona were very excited this week to find a blanket of snow creating their own mini Winter Wonderland.  Of course, the fluffy powder soon became glazed with an unforgiving layer of ice, so we were fortunate that Aiden got plenty of time to play outside (Audra is recovering from a cold and enjoyed only a few moments before Mommy and Daddy made her return inside).

 Aiden did NOT want to come back inside!  He loved playing in the snow.

 Audra tries on her new coat for an outing to the grocery store (before she caught cold and before the snowfall).

 Kona likes to pull Aiden's mittens off--Clyde and I did not enjoy this game, as we had to retrieve the mittens and remove our own gloves to re-cover Aiden's hands.  Aiden thought it was pretty funny, though!

Poor Audra is stuck inside.  At least she has one of her favorite snacks (Gerber's apple & sweet potato puffs) to comfort her!

Aiden started doing flips in the snow--not sure where he saw such a stunt!
