Me: Look, Ruby! It's snowing!
Ruby: Why aren't we outside?
Ruby's wearing: Dress c/o Misha Lulu. Pants, Wal-Mart. Leg warmers, Target (cut-off adult socks). Sweater, Old Navy. Jacket, thrifted by my friend, Rachel. Vintage snow boots, borrowed from Amy. Owl hat, bzzyfingers on Etsy.
All she wanted to do was eat the snow so we had a little talk about what yellow snow meant. We stayed out longer than it took for us to get bundled up. It was pretty fun.
-Rachel

She so cute! Snow days are fun and always remind me of being a kid:)
Oh, and don't worry, we don't get very much snow here in Colorado, and if we do, it melts right away! :)

I love that first picture. What a wonderful expression! She reminds me of my little sister!

Your daughter has the best facial expressions! Like, ever. Haha. We have way more snow than we're used to Victoria, BC right now and Im making the same face as that first one wondering when it's going to leave. Haha.

Her little snowman is adorable! We're in North Dakota and just barely got an inch and a half of snow, but it's been wayyyy too cold to go out and play in. It's crazy since we moved here almost exactly a year ago and I had to wade through 6 feet of snow to inspect our house! Weird winter.
You guys will love Colorado! It's gorgeous.

She is such a little character! You really feel like you can get her personality from photos because she has the best expressions. Love the big photo with her profile and the mitten.

Ruby's expressions crack me up!
Posted by: Missy | 01/20/2012 at 04:46 PM
Her expressions really are the best. And her outfits, too! Glad you ladies could enjoy the snow while it lasted.

What a lovely time! I live in southern Cali and I've been desperately waiting for snow on the mountains. My boys were sick last winter and by the time they were well again, all the snow was gone.
This year my boys are all healthy, but no snow! =)

So precious!! I'm glad you enjoyed the snow day. It is definitely a good practice for what is to come in Colorado. :) Happy Weekend to you and your family!

So cute!! Ruby is a doll! Her outfit is so cute. My daughter jumps up when I tell her it snowed. She gets the biggest grin on her face and then rushes to the nearest window.

My 21 month old was like EW!!!!! When it started snowing here (seattle) but by the end, she loved playing in it.

Yesterday in Denver was a shorts and shirt day for me ... quite warm out, we were saying to ourselves "now THIS is why we love Colorado." We do get cold spells but they are usually brief, same for snow storms. Occasionally we'll have a monster snow storm, I think the last big one was in March of '03...somewhere around 5 feet fell in a couple days. But that's rare! And have you visited the websites for some of our local hot springs? They are a super fun thing to do if it IS cold and snowy:)
