It's Snow Time

With the freshly fallen snow, we ventured outside and weathered (note the pun) the chill in the air to let Eli play in his first "real" snow. I couldn't believe how cold it was, it was 28 degrees this afternoon! Brrrr Yes, I am aware of the negative wind chill in Eastern WA, thank goodness we aren't there, but with the humidity in the air, it was downright cold over here! I am not sure what the "feel like" temperature was, but lets just say my nose and cheeks were awfully cold when we came in.

We had a great time playing in the snow.

I know this is a funny angle. I was actually on one side of the rhodie, Eli on the other. I poked my head around the edge to see him, since he was smiling, I clicked!

Over there Mom!

"Why do you feel it necessary to always aim that thing at me?"

After spending time outside, Uncle Gordon, Aunt Dusti, and Liam came over for some warm play time and a hot bowl of homemade Turkey Noodle Soup.

Eli enjoys putting his hands in his pockets now like a big boy.

Eli and Liam were playing on the bikes.
Liam did a really good job considering he's never ridden one before.
