Snow Day

January 14th, 2011

Another post in our First on Friday series where we share a new experience from the past week.

While on our trip back east (to celebrate my grandmother’s 80th birthday), my daughter encountered snow for the first time. Talk about little girl heaven! (Above, she’s seeing freshly fallen snow for the first time, exclaiming, “It’s snowy!”)

The things we miss out on living in California!

She spent most of the day outside playing in the snow. (Above, she’s holding hands with her snowman.)

Thankfully Grandma and David were amenable to taking turns with her out there. Mama doesn’t much like the snow. (I’m afraid that commuting everyday in snowy Colorado ruined it for me. Perhaps someday I will reclaim the love of cold weather and freshly-fallen snow.)

In the meantime, my daughter finds it magical.

As she should.

  1. Kids and snow are so much fun! I love spending time with our niece & nephew who live in Canada — sledding, skating, snow people, smack-the-target-with-a-snowball, skiing, the works. Hope Miss Leyba gets to try sledding sometime if she hasn’t already!
