We woke up on the last day of February to find the ground covered in snow. Since we never had the chance to go out and play during the ice storm, we were excited to get another snow before winter ended. After Jackson and I examined the snow for a very long
time from the comfort of his window seat, I promised we would head out to play as soon as it warmed up, but considering it never got above freezing, there wasn't much of a warm up! When it hit 28 degrees (with a wind chill of 18!), we bundled up and hit the backyard. His first order of business was
the clear the slides of all snow, so he took off running for the swing set. Next up was the toddler slide... a much shorter ride, but still all the fun! Snoopy and Abbie were having a great time chasing each other, so Jackson got in on the action for while too. Then it was back to the swing set for more fun. Surprisingly, it was Jackson who decided it was time to go in after
only about 15 minutes in the snow. He said it was cold and wanted to go inside, so he took off running to shed the layers. To his surprise, Daddy was waiting inside, just back from the grocery store, with a surprise for him! He's now the proud owner of a plastic baseball bat and ball. He's already got a pretty good swing, but unfortunately, he aims for the dogs more than the ball!
