Kids Get An Extra Dose Of Joy After A Day In The Snow


--by AnnC, posted Jan 10, 2017
It snowed last night which is quite rate here in Western Washington State. School has been canceled for the day and the neighborhood kids are so excited!

A couple of my young neighbors knocked on my door and asked if they could all play in our pasture (it is almost two acres). I was happy to have them and soon they were making snowmen and having snowball fights.

I invited them in to have hot cocoa and homemade cookies. Our snow does not last long -- it is supposed to start raining this afternoon -- but I LOVE seeing the kids have so much fun while it is here!
