Snow Day

Mother nature was kind enough to shed 8+" of snow between late (last) Thursday and early Friday....most all of the local schools were closed as snow crews tried to clear the roads. Paul surprised us by staying home too. We had a fun day together.

After Julia's morning nap, we loaded the girls in the car along with our swim suits and towels and headed to Coco Key Water Resort. Paul has wanted to take Elise there for quite some time and with the weekday special, we were able to try it out without breaking the bank too much. While she was a little skiddish early on, she was going down the kiddie slides at the end and having a great time! For being the first time in a pool, Julia tolerated things very well. She didn't fuss one bit and passed the time by taking in all that there was to see.





In the afternoon, Elise and I bundled ourselves up and headed outside to play in the humungus mountains of snow in our front 'yard.' We climbed up and down and tried to make a slide, though the snow wasn't quite wet enough for packing.



All in a days' work....here was the end result:
