Dusting Day and the World's Smallest Dustman

I realized since we TECHNICALLY didn't get "snow", but rather a "dusting" I shouldn't refer to today as our SNOW Day, but rather our Dusting Day. In these pix, you'll see our dustball fight, the neighbors' dust angel, and the world's smallest SnowMan- or rather DustMan.

Elias and Cameron get ready in their corner.

Katie and I prepare to retaliate.

Isn't he cute???

Snow Day III

Bella wipes Mama off when she gets pelted with a snow ball
So, this picture might not win me Mother of the Year, but it's kind of funny. I didn't MEAN to hit him in the noggin with it! It just landed there and knocked him silly for a few minutes!


Bella and Papa warming up by the fire. Sweet.

Snow Day Fun!

OK, so it didn't snow inches and inches as we would have liked, but at least we got to see the stuff for a few hours! Bella has never seen snow before so this was HUGE for her! We are obviously not prepared, as I had NO waterproof gloves- not a good thing when you're doing snowball fights with melting snow! Here's Bella checking out the snow.


Andres prepares a snowball

Did she do that all by herself?

Elias checks out the frozen hammock. I bet that hammock from Ecuador never dreamed it would see snow!
