This was our 1st major snow of the winter & we are not quite sure whether Emma liked it or not. She kept wanting to go out & play in it but once we were out there, she said very little other than "hold you." She did like our homemade sled and playing on her swingset but that was about it. She wouldn't walk in the snow. It could have been her snow suite, boots or the thick snow, who knows, she wasn't telling.
Our dog Spencer had a great time playing in it as long as we were out there with him. Chris said he look like a deer running through the snow. Chris did have to make him a place to go potty because if he can't find/smell the grass, he will not go. When the ground is frosty it causes the same problem. We had to send Spencer in the house once we noticed he was limping. He had so much snow matted in his fur is was hurting his legs + he was shivering, poor thing. I had to melt it off with a hair dryer. I now know why my Mom always had sweaters for our Poodles when we were kids. I might have to invest in one for future use, even though I don't like dogs in clothes.

Emma was not happy when she saw all this snow of her swing set, "get it off Mommie".

Playing in the snow. Can you see it caked up on his fur???
Emma's first snowman, Daddy actually did all the work
Ah, her swing
Emma decided she wanted to go for a walk
This is the only place she would walk, the shallow snow on the sidewalk.

That is so cool! And, poor Spencer. I can see why his feet hurt~
He had actually just chased a runner down the street & came back limping & that is when we thought he hurt himself. I went to dry him off before taking him in & realized it was the snow caught in his fur causing the limping.
