More Snow, Dec 29-30

We have had many snow days so far this season.  It has been colder than usual this winter, lots of days in the single digits.  It's been so cold that we haven't been able to enjoy the snow as much, but the girls have loved it outside when it's warm enough.  Emilyn loves stomping through the snow, and Matisyn has developed a fascination for icicles.  We attempted to bundle up and play outside one evening, and it was a crazy, freezing snow storm. We didn't last very long, Emilyn didn't make it out of the garage, but Matisyn managed to run around and "experience" the storm a little.

 Here's Emilyn recovering from the short time watching the storm from the garage!

We tried again the next day.  The snow had stopped, but it was really cold.  Emilyn requested a walk around the block, she requests by just leaving on her way!  She made it almost all the way around walking, until she turned around and said "hold you".  She refuses to wear gloves and her little hands get so cold.  The girls were sporting their animal hats from Cousin Kay and Ross.  They are so cute!

Matisyn started with us, but turned around part way when she decided it was too cold.  Below Emilyn is pointing to the Christmas decorations.  She would stop every now and then on our walk to point things out to me.  I took a picture of her little snow footprints because I thought they looked so precious.
