Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow

Daddy and Hayden

Connor, Carson and Hayden

Driving through the neighborhood one would think we were invaded by snowmen. These cute little creations are decorating the snow covered lawns of many. Andrea and Addison created a whole snow family that were very stylishly decorated. I felt a little bad that Hayden and I had not ventured out in this last snowfall. He has played this winter outside with Aunt Kellie and cousins Connor and Carson. They went sledding down the hill at my parents house. He played outside with Aunt Jilly being pulled around the snow in a laundry basket (closest thing to a sled that we have.) He has played in the snow with Daddy and Linus and less than 5 minutes with me. I must confess I hate the cold, love to look at the snow from the warmth of my house but really don't want to be out in it. I was feeling bad that Hayden hadn't gotten to take advantage of the abundance of snow so after seeing this idea online somewhere I was able to let him play in the snow without the coats, scarves, boots and freezing temperatures. We were able to enjoy the snow in the warmth of our bath tub. Yep that's right. I filled the tub up with snow and we made a little miniature snowman. He was so cute and Hayden wanted to share him with Daddy. So after giving him peppercorn and toothpick body parts Hayden took him to Jeff who was laying in bed recovering from his hernia repair. Today we did the same thing and even made snow balls that we threw against the tub walls. This was such a great way to enjoy the snow and not be a bit cold. Hayden did wear his gloves and even put on his snow boots even though the boots were not needed.Mixing it up
