The "Real" Snowy Day

The real snow hit Dickson for the first time in about seven years and we are having a blast!  It snowed about five inches here, and the roads are great for sledding.  We got out today for about three hours and that is a record for our 'Tennessee snow bunny' daughter.  She doesn't care for the cold and wet but today was a breakthrough day in our hopes to make her like a snowy day. A sucker and blanket can go a long way in Addie Reese's world.  We were amazed when the words, "Daddy do it again!" came from her mouth.  After yesterday's half mile journey of crying and begging, "I want to go home. Me cold", we thought she would not go back out until March.  Sad to say I am unable to go "super fast", to use Addie's term, due to my preggers state.  I am still having fun watching and going down some small hills.  Here are some of our memories from the past three snowed in days... 

Our home


Addie going out into the snow on Saturday morning.  She is not a fan of "deep" snow.  It gets her shoes wet and dirty she says. 
 
Kyle is ready for some sledding.  

Probably the funniest thing is to watch Allie fall into the snow.  
She is a hot weather dog all the way.  

Kyle is loving it!
 Addie is wondering, "What's the big deal?"

It is better than hearing her cry and saying 
"I want to go back inside."
