Ellie's First Snow

This is more like it!




We took Ellie out for the first time on Saturday afternoon while it was still sleeting. She never cracked a smile once and just had a look on her face that said "Why are we out here in the freezing cold?" After about 15 minutes we came in. I had unrealistic visions of her loving the snow and us taking turns sledding with her...maybe next year!

On Sunday we tried again...this time we just put Ellie in the wagon and walked around the neighborhood for a while. She was much happier this time around and enjoyed watching the other kids playing and sledding in the snow.

All in all we had a nice weekend together as a family! The question is how old will Ellie be before we get another good snow? I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
