snow day!

it snowed again yesterday.  i love snow.  we've had a total of 8 inches in nashville so far this winter, which is more than we're used to getting in any given winter (or 4 winters combined).  we played outside in it the first couple of rounds, but yesterday isaac wanted to do something inside because he was tired of being cold.  we pulled out our hot chocolate marshmellow stash and the toothpicks we used last week for isaac's cupcakes and made some "creations."  it's one of the only things we've done recently that felt like the joy of the activity lasted way longer than the clean up or prep time (well, honestly, i haven't actually cleaned it all up yet, but it didn't require anything to get us going!).
we made a dog house together, and then isaac made a really great sun.... 
and a super long snake.
meanwhile, ada ate as many marshmellows as she could
and nala, the dog that is not in jail healing tummy wounds, was very pleased when ada snagged the entire bag and spilled them all over the floor.
maybe we'll do it again soon.  though the way things are going this winter, we might be in for some more fun in the snow as well!
