Last night it snowed, so Jason wanted to shovel the driveway today before it turns into ice. Even though it was on the late side, we let the kids go out there with him. They love to shovel or be outside, particularly in the snow, and we've had so little snow this year, Jason figured that this might be their only real opportunity this season.
Surprisingly Hannah also decided to join them. She normally isn't too into being outside in the cold, but I think getting to wear boots is an incentive for her.
She hung out for a couple minutes and then saw the stroller in the garage. She realized that was a much more attractive option, as it allowed her to be involved, but she could be in a comfortable seat and be sheltered by the garage. She even asked to be strapped in.
Joshua and Clara actually shoveled some snow off the driveway (it was a very dry and light snow, so they could shovel it okay) and just had a lot of fun, though Jason did the bulk of the work.
Hannah said that walking was for chumps, though she did want to see, so when they moved around to the front porch and walkway, Jason wheeled her over so she could sit and watch the action. A good time was had by all, and afterwards, while he was getting ready for bed, Joshua suggested that maybe they could shovel again tomorrow. We actually are supposed to get a little more tonight, but probably not enough to warrant another shoveling session.
