Ellie's First Snow Day

Technically, this isn't Ellie's first technical snow day, BUT this is the first day that she actually enjoyed being in the snow. This was last year:

...and this was this year:

We were up by 7 this morning and out the door by 7:20. She could hardly even contain her excitement as I yanked, tugged, and zipped all of her snow clothes on. It was so fun watching catch snowflakes on her tounge, eat the snow, and then try to make it through the feet of snow that we had gotten. We were in and out several times during the day. She was in heaven.

The snow was gorgeous. It's one of the many reasons that I love Utah. There's nothing like fresh snow and gobs of it. There was also crock pot chicken and dumplings for dinner, which topped off the coziness that was this perfect snow day.

The best part of the day? Dad got to have a snow day with us and he was even able to sneak out a few times during the day to build a tiny snowman...that fell over right as I was taking this picture of course.

Also, can I just say how much I love that you can download your whole snapchat story. I love it. Here's the one from today!
