Josiah's First Snow

It doesn't usually snow here in Jacksonville, so this is the first time Josiah's got to play in it. It wasn't much, but we did get an inch or two today. (And it's still snowing).
Before we went outside, Joey was holding the dog door open to let the snow come inside. He told me, "I want to touch it!"

At first, he didn't want to step in the snow, he stayed on the walk.

Thor and Lars miss snow. We used to get many many feet of it when we lived in northern CA, and they had a blast. This is the first time they've seen it in a few years. Thor is our snowbunny, actually.


It was coming down pretty hard.



Once he figured he could make footprints, that's all he cared about.










Earl tried to show him to throw snowballs, but Joey wanted to play catch with them instead.





Throwing a snowball at me (wanting me to catch it).







Our little bitty snowman.
Mmmm, hot cocoa!
All in all, Joey loved it! He didn't want to come in to warm up. We had to drag him in. He must have had fun because he took a nap for the first time in days! (He's sleeping now actually).
