Blue Skies and Snow

Yesterday morning was the kid of morning you love when you live somewhere that gets a lot of cold and snow. The deep blue skies brought early sunlight into our bedrooms, and lit the snow with soft orange light on all the trees and in the fields. It wasn't too cold, and we took advantage. Raph spent almost an hour snow blowing and Makili was totally captivated and followed him around until he saw me kick the snow bank. He thought that was awesome and then walked around kicking all the snow banks. He would only stop to get his mittens adjusted. Eventually he fell face-first into the snow bank. That was the end of the morning's fun...
