Snow

It doesn't snow here in the desert very often, and when it does it usually melts before the end of the day. So when it does snow, I try to get the kids out there as quickly as possible! Aurora LOVES the snow and gets so excited when she sees it. Alex is not too sure about it yet.

So last week we bundled up and I let them outside. They were checking everything out and then - BAM! - Aurora pelted Alex with a snowball. He was NOT happy!! He started crying like he had been severely hurt. It probably didn't help that I was laughing and taking pictures of it. I encouraged him to throw one back at her but he wouldn't have it.

He eventually cheered up and played a little. Aurora wanted to throw snowballs at me, but I wasn't dressed for the weather, so we compromised and I let them throw them at me through the sliding glass door. Mom of the year, here!
