The Cat and Bird Family: 2nd Annual Snow Day

We had our 2nd Annual Snow Day on Friday. It was such a blast! We even took Zac this year! We drove up about 4 or 5 miles North of Christopher Creek and pulled off onto a side rode, drove down a little ways and voila!... there was a nice little area with no one else around so that we could play! It was so fun.

Zac was AMAZED as soon as we started seeing snow on the ground. Ben just wanted to get out and play in it as soon as we saw it (even though it was the side of the highway in a little patch no bigger than an area rug). And Scott kept asking if we were there yet.

It did seem to be taking a really long time to get there, but once we got there the snow was PERFECT for snowman making and was even better for snowball fighting!

Zac didn't really like it at first because he couldn't walk in it very well, but then Bird busted out this mini shovel and Zac thought it was so awesome! He dug and dug and dug, until it was time to sleep, then he just stood there and cried until one of us picked him up.

The first thing Ben did was ask if he could eat it! He cracks me up! So while the rest of us were making snowballs and throwing them at each other he was making snowballs and eating them! With his "Buddy and Buzz" (Woody and Buzz) hat and gloves on.

Scott's main focus was on building a snowman. He's been planning this for a long time. They all worked hard to make this one great. Scott even went searching for the perfect arms by himself. He had such a good time and as soon as it was done and pictures were taken he wanted to destroy it! And after that the snowball fight was on.

Bird and I were ganging up on Scott, but took the time to get a few in on each other. I got him in the butt once (unfortunately no pictures) and he get me in the face (again no pictures). Scott got a few good throws in on us too, and this one in particular was hilarious to him...
