FIRST TIME PLAYING IN THE SNOW!

You'd think since we live in Minnesota and with it being December and all, that we'd already have a lot of snow. Well, no, not at all. And I have been dreaming of a white Christmas. I wasn't just dreaming of it, I was literally praying for it. It just doesn't seem like Christmas without snow...

Here's a photo of our house that I took on December 6th. No snow. And in fact, our grass is greener now than it was this summer. For real. Greener. A lot greener. Weird.

But on December 8th, we finally started getting snow. And we got to play outside. Yippee! My dream come true. It was Eli and Will's first time playing in the snow. (They did get out in the sleds once last winter, but that was only for about 10 minutes. We hardly had any snow last year either.)

It only took 20 minutes to get them all bundled up and ready...

First we put them to work. (One of the perks of having twins...twice the free labor.)

Then we let them play. :)

And boy, did they have a blast! They were giggling and so full of joy. We played outside for a long time.

They built their first snowman together...

We pulled them around in sleds on our street...

I adore my little family!

And I adore my amazing husband!

Here's to hoping that all the snow doesn't melt before Christmas...
