Puddle Stomping and Hot Cocoa

Those two things are a perfect combination in my opinon. And yesterday afternoon it was just what we needed! Once the gazillion layers were put on we braved the downright fridged weather and set out to find a few puddles.

To our disappointment it was slim pickings. I felt horrible because I had talked it up to the boys so much before hand! 

Thankfully Will is always quick to find the silver lining and an option for the group :)

One small but rather deep puddle :)

Jack was first to test it out. Success!

After a few more splashes Jack became bored and ventured off.

Will took this as his chance to show off. Of course a little stretching was in order....

A one foot stomp!

The proud smile....

What I call the Russian high-step technique ;)

And in one jump he splashed the rest of the water out of the puddle :)

He was thrilled!

We lasted a whole whopping 20 minutes outside, the freezing wind made we want to cry! So of course we had to warm up by the fire, and if we did that, then of course we needed hot cocoa and mini marshmallows :)

Warm toes and happy boys.

And a little delicious close-up of Jack :) Isn't he yummy?
