Sophia instantly went to go find her snow pants and hassled me until she had on all her necessary clothing! Then spent her time catching snow flakes, making snow balls, throwing snow in the air, and insisting I make her a snow man! 
Sebastian cried.....and cried and cried! He hated is new warm coat, he didn't want to wear his hat, he was generally unhappy with the idea of getting all these clothes on to go outside. Why couldn't he wear his jacket and run out barefooted like he was accustomed?
Eventually we coaxed him outside after spending all the fun being mad at mom in the house. He insisted that Dora come along and wouldn't put anything on his head. He was unamused.
Eventually we were able to put the hood on at least...it was rather cold which was probably why he relented. Sophia gave him hugs and that seemed to cheer him up....and he even started laughing. He just needs to get used to his winter wardrobe and he will have a lot more fun playing in the snow! 
As usual the morning ended with hot cocoa with a choice of marshmallows. We used our Christmas mugs because if it snows you can use Christmas mugs right?We plan to go back out this afternoon....since more snow has fallen since we first went out. Unlike the kids momma has no winter wardrobe and was in desperate need of mittens and snow boots. So the play time was cut short because mom had to go in and somehow snow isn't fun unless mom plays too!
Here's to Snow Days!
