Snow Day!

We got home and Chloe was able to actually touch the snow with her hands. She liked it and played with it until it melted.
Mama and Chloe posing for a snowy picture. We all had a blast playing in the snow!


Chloe was missing Rambo and Zella and this golden retriever was trying to help her out.

We headed down to the park for some more action.

Snow Bunny!

Dada and Chloe having a great time.

Swerving up and loving the ride!

Starting out on the sidewalk before hitting the feet.

So we bundled up and went sledding and it wasn't just inside this time;)


Today we had a family snow day! Jason was sent home from work as soon as he showed up. And he brought me home banana bread french toast! I won't be surprised if you all are booking the next flight out here just from those 4 little words:)

Tuesday and Wednesday

Chloe had some things she needed to do on her laptop this morning;)
Wednesday we are part of a winter strom warning so we didn't leave the house. But Chloe was all comfy and cozy in her new Harley outfit.

Here's a shot with the logo visible.


Tuesday we were trying to get back into our routine and get some laundry and chores done. So Chloe sported her new IA State gear:)
