Liam meets snow: A short story
This is my way of apologizing for being trapped inside an endless PowerPoint presetation and being unable to update my blog sufficiently.
Saturday we dug out from the 15" of snow we got and brought Liam outside after wrestling him into a pair of boots. I have two black eyes from punching myself in the face when pulling boots on him but HEY he didn't get hurt!
First he walked around like he owned the joint.
Then he walked some more. And he saw a clean nice flat shelf of snow. He decided to take a closer look.
A closer look? ...or is that FALLING! Snow too soft!
And a face angel is made (rest assured Daddy was right beside him).
Oh no. Not such a happy moment in the snow. Lily looks on at Liam like he is a big powdered donut.
But things were soon ok and there was much [more] to learn about snow.
Daisy and Lily go crazy chasing Daddy's snowballs.
Snow tastes cold.
It's fun to play with Dada outside.
Snow is fun. Liam didn't want to go inside. And when we did.... he cried really hard.
The end.

Oh to be young again and "LIKE" snow! It was much more fun when we got snow days and didn't have to drive in it.
Liam looks so cute ... and grown up. Looks like the girls had some fun too!

Such faboo pictures -- I love them all. I am pleased that Liam got into the whole snow thing and didn't find it "yucky" like my boy -- especially since it appears you are getting snow in almost himalayan amounts.

I love this entry--the romping pugs, that beautiful boy face down in the snow, and that terrific picture of you and Liam.
But OH MY GOD--fifteen inches of snow? Bloody hell.
Or Happy Christmas, if you will!
