Baby it's cold outside

Yesterday was the first snow day of the year. I was a little confused at 630 in the morning when I checked the news and it said school was closed but when I looked out my window at the school there was no snow. But I quickly decided not to question it and jumped back into bed to watch cartoons with Madison.  An hour later when we came downstairs there was a gorgeous coat of fresh white snow on the groud .. And it wasn't stopping anytime soon!

Madison was very excited to see all the snow and immediately started dancing around asking to make a snowman. We opted to hang out inside for a little bit until there was more snow and daddy was home, but when he came walking from work it was game on!! Snow suit and boots were put on and we ran outside!

We went over to Madison's school where Pop and uncle Mike were plowing and Madison got to help!

Even daddy took a turn driving uncle Mike's side-by-side and plowed .. We also learnt that if you let Madison steer she will try to drive it into the playground. 

After some fun in the snow we stopped by our favorite coffee shop and then off to lunch at Mima and pop's house. Pop made one of our favorite things ... Grilled cheese with bacon :)

We decided to help decorate the house a little bit, daddy and uncle Mike hung up the lights outside and I helped decorate 2 little trees in the house. 

Upon leavening we got some amazing news... We got our mortgage!!!! So we are still playing the waiting game as the bank still needs to do the appraisal BUT the big thing is done! To celebrate this news we went to Home Depot to get paint samples and then went and grabbed dinner at The Cabin, where Madison celebrated with some ice cream.

It was such a great first snow day :) 

Off to look at paint samples!
