Snow Pals

Wish I would have gotten a better picture, but these two had a lot of fun in the snow. Clayton loves to throw the ball to Keely. Keely doesn't so much like putting the ball in her mouth when it is covered with snow, but they ran around the yard until I made them both come in. :)

Laundry Basket Fun

These two love going on laundry basket rides. :)

Mission Almost Accomplished

As my sister and I discussed the other day, she will probably be the only one to understand this. After the ice/snow we had I contemplated having someone else do our sidewalks and driveway. This was not a nice powder snow, this was ice, ice, ice and then some snow that is really ice. Oh, and I am currently acting as a "single parent" to a 10 month old, 2 1/2 year old and 80 pound dog. I was kidding myself though. I wasn't going to have someone else do it I was. I am cheap, I got some exercise without exercising and most important my OCD kicked in. I am disappointed in myself, I didn't get the driveway as perfectly clear as the sidewalks, but considering this was all done by hand no plow or salt, not a bad job! I just needed one more day to get it clear. :) Clayton enjoyed carrying around the chunks that I was shoveling. Make sure you scroll down to see his AWESOME snow angel!

My Little Snowman!

We have been stuck inside the house since Monday morning, so I decided it was time for some fresh air. I bundled Clayton up and he was eager to get out in the snow. Keely is a wimp and only lasted a little bit so she and Maddie Boo sat in the kitchen and watched out the door. Clayton did a little shoveling. The ice is making it hard to get it off the deck. He then made some fantastic snow angels! He would have stayed outside all day if I would have let him. Hopefully this will make for a great nap!
