Weekend of Fun and Snow!

This past weekend was another cold, wintry one here in Ruckersville! But our little family thoroughly enjoyed it! Even Micah and I enjoyed getting out and getting our driveway shoveled....especially since we FINALLY invested in a good snow shovel!! And trust us, that snow shovel got broken in well this weekend! And of course, Emily enjoyed playing inside with Mommy and Daddy all weekend and some special treats along the way too!

Emily has really come to love her playroom! She enjoys her books IMMENSELY!! And she loves having enough to play with so that she can go from one to another at her own speed!

Another thing Emily really enjoyed yesterday was when Micah went and brought in a little cup of snow of her very own....right off the front porch:) We sat her in her chair and let her explore it! She seemed to like to play in the snow more when she could be warm while she was doing it, instead of freezing her little nose off outside trying to touch it!

On Saturday we mainly stayed inside, since it was SUPER COLD and the snow was falling all day. But I was able to make a few loaves of bread and a yummy Chicken Pot Pie!!

But in Sunday afternoon we decided to venture out and take some pictures. We also decided to go for a drive up to Sheetz just to see how the roads were looking, to see if it would be safe for all of us to make it out today! And plus we wanted to dry out our nice driveway since it was all shoveled and beginning to melt!! I just can't say how much we appreciate SALT and a SHOVEL!! Thanks Mommers and Dooders for pushing us to get both....well actually getting them for us and allowing us to pay you back! We REALLY appreciate it!

Overall, our weekend was a memorable one. We were so grateful and fortunate that we could all be home together and that we didn't have anywhere we HAD to be. It was just nice to stay home and have some family time!!

Here are a few pictures from our weekend of Fun and Snow!

One of Emily's funny faces she likes to make! As Daddy has cornered her between her table and her bookcase!

A Moment of Love, Silliness and Adoration!

A Sweet Hug....too bad Emily's face is getting a little smooshed:)

Playing with her Ball Popper! One of her favorite toys!

Time to play with the snow.....INSIDE!

"Uh oh, it's on my fingers. And it's a little cold!"

She enjoyed poking her fingers into it!

Love that Little Grin!

Some pictures of our outside adventure! Emily is standing up with Daddy's assistance!

What an adorable Face!

I love snuggling with my girl!

Emily's serious look as she stands on her own!

However it didn't last long and the poor thing face planted into the snow! One of those moments where we could resist taking a picture (for her future) before we picked her up, comforted her and got her warm again!

Another classic shot, that I am sure she didn't think was too great then, but one day!! Who knows:)

Now she's all dried off, but still not too amused that we are STILL outside and Daddy STILL has the camera!

One last Family Photo before we headed back inside to warm up and dry off!
