Snowy Winter

Snow is one of those magical wonders to children. I never got to see much of it growing up in the Bay Area, but now that we live up the mountain, east of Sacramento, we experience it at our own home in the Winter. We also enjoy driving up further to the Crystal Basin area and sometimes even Tahoe. With the little ones and little money while my husband is in school, we just enjoy the simplicity of Mother Nature's icy downpour. We build lopsided snowmen, make snow angels, crunch it between our fingers, explore, throw snow balls, and best of all, sled! Even if you don't live in the snow, it is such a priceless experience for little ones to at least visit it. There is supposed to be quite a bit more coming this season, so get out and play with your children. Taste it, feel it, jump in it, run in it, build with it, throw it......Possibilities are endless. Jaguar is determined to build a "snow fort" when it snows again. I said, "How about an igloo?" and he concured.
