Snowtime Fun

For those of you that don't live in Northern Indiana, you are not lucky enough to experience beautiful, lake effect snow (sarcasm). A couple weeks ago we got hit hard with snow, snow, and more snow. It added up to 10-12 inches before it finally stopped!! Plus, we had sub-arctic temperatures that made it painful to go outdoors (at least that's how I felt...LOL).

So anyway, the last couple days the temperatures have gotten increasingly warmer and some of the snow finally started to melt. With the warmer weather, that meant I could tolerate going outside, at least long enough to take Bella out to play in the snow for the first time! Jason, Bella, and I got all bundled up and ventured outdoors. We got to test out her new sled! At first, she was unsure about the snow. Being all bundled up made it harder to walk too so I think that was part of it. We put her on her sled and pulled her around the yard. Then daddy took her up the little bitty hill at the edge of our yard and decided to push her down it. Bella was not happy about that at all (See picture below). Since she wasn't having that, we decided to build a snowman, or at least I built the snowman. Bella just stood and watched me. Our little snowman is sad looking but it was still fun making him! By the time we were done, it was time to come in and warm up. So Jason pulled Bella and I in the sled up to the house, I'm sure that was a sight. Overall, we had a great time playing in the snow. Not sure how soon we will do it again because I am definately not a snow lover. You never know...

Here are some pics of our fun. Enjoy! Until next time...
