Perfect Snow Day

My weak blogging goal lately is to post at least once a month. Hello, March 31st! My favorite season is officially here, but we've really had to fight for spring this year! We still needed coats this week.

Sunday, March 1st brought us a storm of perfect snow. Church was cancelled (which was especially merciful since we are currently in the dreaded 1:00 spot), so while Preston took the nap he so desperately needs but is usually forced to skip, the rest of us threw on boots and coats right over our comfy clothes and headed out to shovel and play.




Don't judge - snow days mean no make up or hair brushing. 




Asher and his beloved snowman. I'll be honest - we were really cozy inside and Andrew and I struggled to be excited about gearing up and playing in the snow at first. But we knew Asher would love it, and it was so sweet to laugh and play together...family memories made one snowball at a time. Life lesson: Sacrificing selfishness always pays dividends in the end. 

We came inside and had hot cocoa next to a warm fire and enjoyed a yummy crockpot roast and homemade macaroni and cheese. If every snow day were this perfect, I'd gladly take more snow in March.
