Snowball Fight

We had another beautiful snowfall all day yesterday. It was perfect in the fact that it didn't stick to the roads at all.
Zander had a Dr. appointment (for a persistent cough that's been going on for over 2 weeks), so we had to get out in it. When we got home, Philip hurried out of the car and ran outside. All the kids were still in the car so I went to see what Philip was doing. He was hiding with a snowball in his hand. He was ready to pelt Eli and Emma Kate when they got out of the car.
Emma Kate came out first but she immediately spotted him. She remained quiet and we all waited for Eli to lolly-gag take his time getting out.

Eli finally came out and WHAM!!! He had no idea it was coming. When I saw how much fun the 3 of them started having trying to hit each other with snowballs, I ran inside for the camera.

Zane and Zander had been waiting patiently in the car while all the snowball fun was going on. I got them out and Zander went straight out into the snow with the most priceless expressions....

Momma caught him and snapped a picture with him. You can tell by the look on his face that he would've rather been running around....

We tried to get Zane to come out in the snow but he would have none of it. He stayed in the garage where he could see us and vice versa and played with balls.

I know we are under-dressed (no hats, no coats, etc...), but we were literally walking from the garage to inside our house when this impromptu fun took place. And we were outside for less than 10 minutes. We survived.
