SNOW in Sariyer

Dec 10-11 2013
We picked the boys up on Tuesday and the snow flurries had begun.  They were so excited.  As you can see from Luke's face.  They soon stopped, and we heard about it,  "why is God not letting it snow? -Noah" 

But Wednesday morning, they woke up to lots of snow, and we know because we heard the 'blizzard' all night,  the wind and snow hitting the window is not something we usually hear in Mississippi.  And we heard the pitter patter of little feet and the squeal of excitement as Noah looked out the window for the 1st time that morning.  
 You can just imagine the caption that goes here: " (insert excitement and awe) "
 Luke's smile once he figured out that he was suppose to be ecstatic. 
 I loved just seeing everything covered in snow.  I took pictures from our balcony. In my arm pj's and slippers. 






 Then Daddy gave into the begging and took the boys down to the driveway to play for a while.  


 Silly Momma has misplaced, or the boys have outgrown their gloves from last year, so they got shovels to encourage them to dig and not get their hands in the coldness.  

 The sun trying to break through.
 Cute lil spruce tree, covered in snow, looked Christmasy. 
 Finally seeing the sun. 

 the boys posed for a pic.

 Even the street dogs were excited about the snow. 
 Our view of the hill.

 Then Drew and the boys walked down the street to make sure the buses were running.  Momma had to leave to go to the Dentist, to get her tooth fixed.

 Making snow angel.  
 After this our neighbor promptly came out to tell us that they boys would get sick if we let them play in the snow.  So they came in.  Have to be culturally appropriate :)
