First Snowfall

It finally snowed today! We woke up this morning to a yard full of delicious snow to play in and explore. So this is Olivers first real experience with snow. It snowed after he was born but he was a little out of it in those days.

Aaron and Meg gave us this snow suit and it is hilarious. Oliver was totally the kid from A Christmas Story. Please just look at that kid, he can hardly move! He was nice and toasty warm. And we watched Ryan from inside as our friendly neighborhood snowman made an appearance.
We are excited about the snow but we understand that the excitement may not last for long:) So we are enjoying it while we can and are sooooo thankful that it hasn't come until now, it makes winter seem a little shorter. It's so fun to have a white Christmas. We need to go get a sled asap and hit the slopes.

My favorite part about snow is that there really are snowflakes, just like the ones you cut out in kindergarten, but just miniature. Everyone else may know this but I vividly remember when I was at school at BYU-I and I was with my friend Brooke and we discovered this. It was quite the scene, and we proceeded to tell everyone around us and at our dismay it seemed we were the last to find out:) Typical Californian's, I know. But we were seriously amazed.
