We were so happy to get surprised with snow right before Christmas!!!

It was really wet snow so the kids were able to sled and throw snowballs(the painful kind, like rocks).

I noticed that I got snow stilts after a little bit.

HA!

Little bit was sure she wanted to ride with her big brother on this part even though he thought they would run into one of those cedar trees.

She got snow all over her face and hair…

Mostly she just wanted to eat snow the whole time.

My kids ate plenty of dirt that day I am sure.

The girls are not good at telling when they are getting a little bit cold so they wait too long to go inside or stop picking up snow.

This usually results in tears when we do go inside.

Glad we got to play in the snow in Oklahoma!

Do you get snow where you live?

Enjoy it or hate it?

Here are some of my favorites from our recent trip to the Tulsa Children’s Museum.

We brought a friend with us so she will pop up in some of the pics also.

They change out exhibits pretty often so it is not the same things over and over.

I had not been in a while so the only thing not new to me was the tape slide and toddler/baby area.

My youngest boy spent most of the time building this wagon/sled and the rest of the time giving rides to kids.

I think if left alone, he would build quietly all day.

With three little sisters and a brother though that never happens…

Dad helped him improve his design a bit so it would be easier to pull.

Which meant it went faster…

Oops.
