SUMMER...PLEASE STAY!!

I DON'T WANT TO BE COLD...."WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"!!! (THIS POST IS FOR YOU AMANDA..BECAUSE I KNOW IT MAKES YOU SMILE WHEN YOU LOOK AT THESE PICTURES)

SAYLOR AND MADDOX * FIRST SNOW 2*20*06

LET ME JUST SAY...AS A MAMA WHO LOVES TO TAKE PICTURES... AND NEVER WANTS TO MISS THE "FIRST" THINGS IN LIFE...THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT WHAT I WAS EXPECTING TO SEE WHEN I LOOKED THRU THE LENS ON THAT VERY COLD DAY.

TO SAY THEY HATED THE SNOW...WELL YOU CAN SEE FOR YOURSELF..A BIG UNDERSTATEMENT!!! THEY TAKE AFTER THEIR MAMA FOR SURE IN THIS DEPARTMENT...WE DO NOT LIKE TO BE COLD!!...THIS WAS THE FIRST SNOW THAT THEY WERE ACTUALLY BIG ENOUGH TO REMEMBER..IN FACT, IT MAY HAVE BEEN THEIR FIRST SNOW EVER...BUT I HONESTLY CAN'T REMEMBER.. THAT MORNING THEY WERE BOTH SO EXCITED AND COULDN'T GET OUT THE DOOR FAST ENOUGH..THEY WERE SO READY TO GET OUTSIDE AND SEE WHAT THIS WHITE WONDERLAND WAS ALL ABOUT..OR SO THEY THOUGHT..I LITERALLY OPENED THE FRONT DOOR..THEY BOTH WALKED DOWN TO THE GROUND..FELT HOW COLD IT WAS..THEN BOTH STARTED IMMEDIATELY SCREAMING (SEE ABOVE PICTURE FOR ACTUAL REINACTMENT)...WHAT MAKES MY FRIEND AMANDA LAUGH AND LAUGH IS THE FACT THAT I MADE THEM STAND THERE ON THE FRONT PORCH SO I COULD GET A PICTURE OF THEM IN THEIR FIRST SNOW...I MEAN..HOW COULD I MISS A PICTURE OPPORTUNITY LIKE THAT!! I LAUGH..BECAUSE IT REMINDS ME OF THE MOVIE "THE CHRISTMAS STORY"..SAYLOR HAS THE FULL FLEDGE CRY GOING ON AND MADDOX HAS THE ANNOYING WHINEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ACTION GOING ON...AS YOU CAN SEE IN PICTURE 2...I THINK HE WAS TOO FROZEN TO STOMP HIS FOOT AND JUMP UP AND DOWN...I'M GLAD TO SAY THAT THEY BOTH NOW LOVE THE SNOW...BUT WE ALL WOULD RATHER MR. SUNSHINE STAY A LIL' LONGER THIS YEAR...IF I COULD HAVE MY WAY...THAT'S HOW IT WOULD BE........
