It's a Winter Miracle!  

Posted by Shannon & Lindsay

It's a snow day! Anyone who lives anywhere else in "The Greatest Snow on Earth" Utah would say, "Big deal, so what?" But for us St. Georgians, a day of snow - and snow that sticks! - is a rare occurence, and cause for a trip to the attic to pull out the mittens, scarves, and coats, not jackets, but COATS!

I put Lindsay in her cute snow outfit and we went out in the backyard for a few minutes. I would have liked to let her play in it but since she is anti-shoe and threw a tantrum when I tried to bring them near her, I wouldn't let her go play in it lest she get infant frost bite. I did, however, take some cute pictures of her on our swing in her hat, coat, mittens, and socks lol, and I made her eat a little bit - she didn't quite know what to make of it. I even taught her about snowballs, snowmen, and the do's and don't of snow consumption:

WHITE SNOW = GOOD
YELLOW SNOW = NOT SO GOOD

Maybe during next year's annual snow (as we usually only get one) she'll agree to some feet coverings and be allowed to play around in it. For now, she and her bare feet are missing out!

Holy cow you got way more snow than we did. Lindsay looks like she's loving it.
