Pre Snowball Fight...
Post Snowball Fight...
Gracyn, on the other hand,
much preferred baking cookies indoors.
A little snow took her a long way!
Give her some butter, chocolate chips, and a mixer and she's good to go...
Looks like we may have more powder to look forward to next week...
I see snowman building, another massive snowball fight and whipping up a batch of snow cream in the near future!
