Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow...




In the good ole hills of Tennessee we have been enjoying some snow. As Cade calls it, "dow, dow, dow!" He,he. Considering my little man Cade has a cold, we haven't really gotten the chance to play outside. The great part about these snow days is that I get to stay out of work and enjoy some well deserved mommy and Cade time. We have had to get creative being cooped up in the house for 3days!!! My house is a sure sign of it!!! Toys, toys, everywhere! We've read lots of books, colored, made some edible play-dough (despite the peanut butter recall), and finger painted lots of pictures (thanks to Crayola's mess free finger paint packs- They are great!). However, the most exciting thing for Cade and I has been making "snow cream"! Just a little milk, sugar, vanilla, and "dow, dow, dow".Yummm. Doesn't that bring back some childhood memories! I gathered a huge bowl of fresh snow and actually let Cade do most of the mixing. Messy?-Yes! The sticky mess was worth all the memories we created. It is now a tradition passed on. -Isn't that the best part of being a mommy!!
