I know it has been quite a while since I have put anything on our blog, but I think an inch of snow has motivated me to write about it! On February 4, 2011, Hutto was covered with one inch of snow!!
And in the first picture-- you can see Truett has some pretty impressive snot rockets to show off while he was playing in it.
We were out playing in the snow around 7:30 in the morning. The boys were SOOO excited when they woke up and saw the blanket of white covering our house and yard. But being the Texans we are, we don't have the proper clothing for the wet snow, so we only played in it for about 30 minutes. Owen was wet, cold, (and I think a little hypoglycemic from no breakfast) that he started crying to go back inside. Truett of course, feels no pain, and I am surprised he wasn't swimming in the 40 degree water of our swimming pool. The snow was pretty dry, and we couldn't make any snowmen, but the boys sure tried to form some snowballs to throw at each other. It ended up coming apart in mid-air, which was probably for the best.
Snow Angels are always fun. These are actually made in the middle of the street in front of our house. The boys loved making tracks and footprints, so we actually walked around a few blocks to check it all out. And of course, school is closed for the day!!!
Here is a short video of the boys riding their bikes in the snow. Or I should say--ATTEMPTING to ride in the snow. I think it was more difficult than they had anticipated.
