Snow Day!

Yesterday, an amazing thing happened. It snowed in Austin! At our house, it came down all day, and the kids loved it. Well, Scout had her moments when it just got too cold for her, but Garrett could have played out there all day, I think. The minute it started, I bundled up the kids and sent them out immediately. You never know how long something like that is going to last in our area, so I wanted to make sure they didn't miss it. We made two snowmen and had a great snowball fight. Garrett was very sweet to make snowballs for Scout, and then he would instruct her as to whom her next victim would be. He even chose himself sometimes and stood still so she wouldn't miss. The snowball fight that happened when Ryan got home was a little more brutal, and it was right up Garrett's alley. We're sad to see that everything had melted by this afternoon, but it was fun while it lasted!
