Photo Challenge: “Bundled Up”

Even though we live in Ohio where the winters are typically cold, frigid and snowy, I’ve found that I don’t have as many snowy photos as it seems like I should have.  I’m thinking this is because:

a) I hate the cold and don’t like to go out in the snow all that much...

and

b) Snow Masks (urgh!)
bundled up

My kids are completely obsessed with wearing them every stinkin’ time they go out to play in the snow!

I really can’t blame them since the masks keeps them so much warmer while they are playing, but good grief!  How is a mom supposed to get good snow photos when the kids insist on wearing a mask?  Every single photo starts to look very much alike.

Enter your “Bundled Up” photo over at i heart faces today…
