Fun in the Snow!

It's been snowing off and on the last week, so we've got a few inches on the ground here. This morning (the 18th), we finally took advantage of it and took Gwen out to play. She LOVED it, as you can see by these pictures.
Here are Gwen and Daddy making snow angels, an activity she enjoys this year. Last year when we tried to teach her, she started complaining as soon as we put her down in the snow.
See that humongous smile on her face? That's our happy girl.
After the snow angels, they started piling up snow around Daddy's knees.
There's our dog Boot. She loves snow, too. Some fingers got nibbled when she got impatient waiting for us to throw snowballs for her to bite.
Just a very rough effort at making a snowman.
I don't think there's enough magic in all the hats in the world to make that dance, but Gwen still had fun piling the snow.
Of course, it was even more fun when the pile of snow wound up on Daddy's legs. She LOVED burying him under the snow.

And here it is: Gwen's adorable laugh. I don't need to tell you how much fun she had dumping snow on Daddy's head.
...still laughing at each other.
She was so happy, she kept laughing even when Daddy smothered her with kisses.After that, it was Gwen's turn to be buried. She loved that, too......so much so that when we got home, she had to lay down on the lawn and have Daddy bury her again. He created a monster!

Yay, I loved reading about that and the video too! She just makes me smile; it's infectious with her. Isn't everything so much fun as a family and with a little one? Christmas is great this year. Can't wait to see you guys on Christmas Eve. Remember jammies for Gwen for the little pj party part.
Love,
Laura
