Let's Hear it for the Boys: OMG the snow... don't you know this is Texas we're not supposed to get SNOW!!!

I guess I am the only person in the world that doesn't like snow. Don't get me wrong, I think it's beautiful looking out my window from under a warm and coozy blanket. But, I think that is it's only redeeming quality. And I guess God didn't get the memo that it only snows an inch every other year in Texas. I hate having to worry whether or not I can get out of my house (I have a steep driveway). I hate worrying if Chandler can get home safely from work. I hate having cabin fever. You people in the north are very special 'cause I don't think I can do it any more.

Now, that being said there is literally nothing I wouldn't do for my kids. I did go out yesterday and actually picked Ethan up from school. And I went to the store to "try" and get snow gear. I was able to snag one snow bib for Ethan on clearance. BECAUSE IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO SNOW IN TEXAS. I tried to get myself some wellies which were all gone by the time I got there. So I went from completely soaked tennis shoes to only mostly soaked UGG (imitaton) boots.

After we got ready for the snow we went out and built ourselves a bonafied snowman. We were out for 2 hours but it was a pretty good snowman if I do say so myself. Ethan did great in his new bib. He stayed warm and dry the whole time. Poor Christian however was a different story. I think he likes the snow about as much as I do. It wasn't too long before he started getting whiney. He didn't want to be cold anymore but he also didn't want to go inside away from the fun either. By the time I dragged him in kicking and screaming, he was freezing and wet. I took his clothes off and put warm dry ones on and that's when he started shivering and panting. It was kind of scary. A new reason not to like the snow.

I imagine we'll go back out there today. I guess we should enjoy it while it lasts. And I mean enjoy in the "this completely sucks" sort of a way.
