PLAY, PLAY, PLAY!!!

This specific day, I was quite tired and the boys had been begging me for a couple of days to let them go out and play in the snow. I finally gave in and got them all geared up to go. I had chores to do, but remembered my mom saying over Christmas break, "Forget the chores. I will clean up while you go out and play with the kids in the snow. It isn't too often that you get to do this, so go and enjoy it while you can." Well, I ended up playing for few minutes that day, but went to shoveling the snow instead. So, this particular day, I put all the chores and nap times aside and went to make a lasting day of memories with my boys. I am so thankful I did it, because it was fun and just what I needed to do! So, there are tons of pictures that I had taken because we made a snow man, that turned into a chair immediately after they beat the snowman down, and then into a slide to finish off our time outside. Then, of course, we came in and enjoyed a cup of hot cocoa.
