Snow day...

This past weekend was our first snow since Rupert was just a little guy! This year he is MUCH more into it. He was a little cautious at first, as with most things, but after a few minutes he got right into it! Grammie and Grampy came up this weekend as well which was much fun indeed!

{family resemblance}


Reading with Grampy and Sid.


The men discussing how the puzzle was made. Seriously. That's what they were doing.


Rupert in daddy's glasses... and workin'em.


Our first snow walk. This is one of the brief moments Rupert would let Colin carry him... most of the time he wanted to be running around in the snow!


Our destination... the new Co-op and Serious Coffee near our house. Woot!


There's something magical about snow at night. It's our plan to always take our kiddies out for walks on the first snow of every year... even if it means waking them up!



oh my little snow shark!



The next day was Colin's day off so we took the morning as a "snow morning". We got all bundled and headed out for some fun!




Rupe was in love.


Rupe and daddy watching a truck trying to make it up our hill... it is a common occurrence during the winter on our hill.



After our lovely snow time we came inside for hot chocolate for Rupes and rumnog coffee for the adults, along with some delicious chocolate chip cookies. And yes that is my amazing new Santa mug... jealous?



Rupes knows how it's done.


yup... again... more family resemblance! I love my precious boys.

  3. Love the post; have been waiting for the "snow" post. He is such a neat age for the beginning of more new adventures; looks like daddy enjoyed it just as much as Rupert. Great job honey, love mom

  4. YES, I am jealous of your santa mug! That is exactly the sort of mug I want but can't find anywhere! And great pics DeSarah! Rupert looks like he had fun times ten!

    And oh, what a cutie in his snow suity!

    ps. I will think you are crazy if you ever wake your kidlings up for a snow walk (or really anything). But maybe you're not crazy. Maybe you're just snow committed! Woot! Go Sarah!

  6. I dig it! Consider my comment a motivation for you to buy more awesome shark hats and have your kid/my nephew roll around in the snow.
