Snow Baby

Well, we're stuck here in blizzard land. Literally stuck! We haven't left the house for 2 days. Kelly's parents said they haven't seen a storm like this in years. We did get out for a bit on Wednesday. It was pouring down snow but I had no idea it would be the only time we'd make it outside. I couldn't wait to get Gracie out in the snow. We bundled her up in gear we had and even borrowed Grandma's gloves because I left her brand new pair back in Texas! Here she is all ready to go. (You like her outfit?)

Her Daddy tried to get her to like it.. (See the snow coming down?)


And in true Gracie style, she HATES the snow. Literally HATES it. (Why am I not surprised?) I sent this picture to my family in Texas and my brother said it looks just like Gracie at the beach except with a lot more clothes on! But who could blame her. Her boots were too big, it was freezing cold and her hair was wet from all the snow coming down.



Did she really think we would just leave her out there or something? Geez! I can still hear her screaming "I hold you, I HOLD YOU!"



We finally did pick her up and she LOVED watching Grandpa throw snowballs- especially when he'd hit Grandma!!
Just like we say for everything Gracie hates, I'm sure she'll like it next year. Ha!

My favorite is the pic of Kelly with her thrown over his shoulder trying to pull her boot up (I guess!). Really funny! I bet it's fun for Kelly to share his snowy background with his daughter. She's part Texan and part Nebraskan. I'm sure she'll like it next year!
