First Snow!!!

It SNOWED!!!!  I was so excited yesterday to wake up and see snow!!  I was a good boy yesterday morning and went to wake up Mommy instead of sneaking downstairs and getting into stuff I'm not supposed to, and Mommy told me to look out the window!  I spent the whole time Mommy was waking up looking out the window and watching it snow!! 

So I drug Mommy outside and we played in the snow!  It was so much fun!!  Mommy showed me how to shovel the driveway so I can help Daddy this winter.  I thought it was more fun to shovel the snow on the grass and put it on the driveway, but Mommy said I was doing it backwards. 

Then we went in the backyard and let the doggies run around . . . well, let Mowgli run around - Piper's not much of a snow dog!!  And Mommy helped me make a Snowman!!!  Actually Mommy did most of it, but I made the balls to start with so she could roll them.  We had to make it a couple times, cuz it kept falling apart or falling over.  Finally we got it standing with a face and hat.  Mommy hurried to take some pictures!!! 

Then Greg was playing outside too, so we went over to play with him and Lacey and Jaxon.  We tried to make another snowman, but mostly we just played with Callie and ate snow!!  Then we went inside to warm up and play some more.

When we came home I was bugging Mommy about some Hot Chocolate so she made some, and it was YUMMY!!!  Mommy found a recipe to make her own Hot Cocoa Mix, and since we drank almost the whole first batch already we made some more.

That way Daddy could have some too when he came home for lunch.  Yep - Daddy came home for lunch yesterday!!  Isn't that cool that Daddy works so close he can come home if he wants too!!  Then he can have a hot lunch and hang out with us if he wants!!  Also, last night we went and did some shopping.  Daddy made Mommy a promise a while ago that she could get something special if he got a good paying job, and since he did we went and got the something special!!  Daddy's going to pick it up today, so I won't ruin the surprise - I'll let Mommy tell you about it when it comes and she can get pictures.  She's so excited!!  And so Thankful to Daddy!!  Speaking of thanks - Turkey Day is Coming!!!  Mommy made a Thankful Turkey for us.  She'll have to take a picture to show you.  It was a MOPS Craft.  It's a turkey with a lot of Paper Feathers for the tail.  Each day we take a feather and write something we are thankful for on the feather then stick it in his tail.  Then when we sit down for Thanksgiving dinner we can read off all the things we have been thankful for this month!!  Mommy's so smart!!  I'm thankful for her and Daddy!!  So have a Happy Turkey Day everyone and Watch for an update on Mommy's Surprise!!
