Girls meet snow.....

Last year they got to see snow. This year they can play with it. Today we woke up to a white blanket outside. So I filled up there wagon with some snow and took it inside. It took about 2 seconds and they figured out what every child that has played with snow knows. It tastes good.

It's cold......Brrrrr
