The top picture shows what it looks like outside our window. (Try and find our car out there) Whitney seems to really enjoy looking outside and saying 'snow'. She thinks snow is great fun!
One of the main things I dislike about the snow is the extra time it takes to get ready. I have to plan an extra 10 or fifteen minutes into getting out the door. Trying to put little kid gloves and boots and hats and coats on requires a college degree, or something like that. When I worked at the daycare, we would spend more time dressing the kids for the snow than we actually did playing in the snow. But just dressing Whitney and Rachel isn't too bad. And Whitney tries to be helpful by finding her gloves or attempting to put on her own coat.
Will has been having fun going outside with Whitney. Rachel and I stay inside so Rachel won't get too cold. Whitney tried eating the snow and told me later that it was yummy and not cold. After playing outside, Whitney and Will came inside for some delicious hot chocolate. Thank you Scott and Emily for buying the yummy hot chocolates for us for Christmas.
Here Whitney stands by the snowman that she and Will made. I made a very small contribution by finding the carrot for the nose, but most of the credit goes to Will. He is a good snowman maker.
So winter has finally hit Cheney. I thought we might get lucky and not get much snow this year, but that's okay. Whitney really loves the snow.

Ours was just as stinky! Then we had freezing rain for two days to make a coat of ice over everything. Yesterday it actually warmed up and the sunshine came out and there was lots of melting, but it still isn't all gone and today looks yucky again.
Whitney looks pretty fancy in her hand knitted hat! You got a good dumping there. That is a sweet image of Whitney looking out the window at the white white snow.
