Like most of the Midwest, Oklahoma is experiencing a record-breaking arctic cold front which recently brought four inches of ice and snow to our backyard.
Gray's school was closed on Friday and I worked from home since the roads were still bad. When Gray woke up that morning, he immediately thought it was Christmas. I guess he's seen one too many movies where it snows on Christmas morning. After answering about a dozen snow and Christmas-related questions, we got it all straight.
After breakfast, Michael and Gray got suited up to play. They couldn't stay out very long because the windchill was ridiculously cold (like single digits), but I went out with him later in the day to tromp around again.
I was very thankful that we never lost power and had a fully-stocked fridge!
The snow wasn't good for making snowmen or snowballs, but it was good for eating!
Holt was also with us Thursday afternoon/evening as the snow moved in. Amy was flying home from a work trip to Houston and luckily was able to return safely. Meanwhile, they boys enjoyed hot chocolate with marshmallows.
The boys also enjoyed playing dress-up, hence Gray's pirate bandanna during their cocoa break.

Holt thought he was so big drinking out of a mug. He pretended it was coffee and kept telling Gray to smell his coffee breath. So silly!
