Snow Day


While we were enjoying Christmas with Mom, Dad and Jeff's family, we started hearing reports that it was snowing in Frisco.  We looked out the window, but no snow in Lavon.  We were super bummed, but after about an hour Jeff came in reporting that it was snowing!


The kids bundled up and went outside to enjoy the snow for a few minutes.  We didn't stay outside long, because we didn't bring snow gear.  Jess didn't have the right shoes, pants or gloves.  Jonathan was bundled up but forgot gloves.  I didn't want to wear my good coat outside, so I was wearing Dad's rain jacket that didn't cut any of the cold.  I also had mittens on that converted to half gloves.  In order to take pictures I had my trigger finger exposed.  Boy, did it get cold.  Jeff wasn't properly clothed either, but Lainey sure looked cute!


Jess borrowed Fred's coat to bundle her and Lainey up for a picture and got photo bombed by Jonathan.  He truly thinks that he must be everywhere that Lainey is!

It was very hard to get a picture of Lainey.  She really didn't want Jess to help her and she didn't want to pose for a picture.  She was moving fast.  It was probably the first time she had ever seen snow.  I got plenty of pictures of the back and side of her head.  This was the best I could get.  Her mother came out with her tablet and tried to video her and just ended up walking backwards in front of her, so that she could capture the moment.  When you are two, you cannot slow down for pictures and videos.  Who knows when you will ever see snow on Christmas again?
