Snow Day

A few days ago (maybe weeks ago, I have no concept of time) old man weather brought some snow and ice. Despite the cold we needed a little time out of the house. So we took to marching in the ice. I taught the girls how to march months ago and we practice often and it has been a great little 'tool' to get the kids home after a day of play. This time we used marching feet so that we didn't slip and slide all over the place, and we stuck to the grass...much easier to march in. Alex loved stomping and marching all around, Kaylee wasn't as big of a fan at first but she warmed up to the outing. we paraded about with only minor slides and bumps and by the time we went inside it was getting a little dark- it was a successful outing full of bumps, skids, chilly fresh air, airplanes, cracked ice, cold fingers and smiles.
