So we woke up this morning to a suprise. We had 3 inches (or so) of snow. Knowing that we may be moving to Phoenix in the near future, I figured it was the best opportunity possible to let Gavin have some time in the snow. So, we bundled up, despite the fact that we don't have snow clothes for him, 3 pairs of pants under a pair of lined waterproof pants, along with a few layers on top, a pair of mittens, and a goofy looking hat to top it all off, and he was set to go. I of course couldnt find his regular red fleece hat that fit nicely, so we had to squeeze his mellon into a old hat, that didnt look much to comfortable, but he didnt seem to mind.
So, we went ouside, and I'm not sure he really cared about the snow, he was just thrilled to be outside playing at all. Then of course, being Gavin, he spotted the stairs up to the deck, and spent most of his time there going up and down them. He loved to run around the back yard though of course, since thats what he does! 
At the very end of our time out there, he finally figured out how to take his mitten off and got to stick his hand down into the snow. At first it was interesting to feel the soft, cold, squishy feeling, but he quickly realized that it went from interesting to uncomfortable, so inside we went, where we stood on a beach towel and peeled out of layers, back down to jammies, which were the bottom layer and then cuddled under the blanket on the couch and watched cartoons. It was a great day, and I think he really did enjoy his brief time in the snow! We got some great pictures!
