This is snow!

Well, it snowed and it was beautiful and the kids had a blast. We had a snow drift on our patio that measured about 7 inches but I think the more accurate totals would be 4-5 inches. It wasn’t great snow for snowman building but it was perfect for sledding. And we all did some sledding. We went to our friends’ house in the neighborhood since we don’t have a hill in sight of our house and we had so much fun with them. It was how I remember snow days being when I was a kid; staying outside playing until you can no longer feel your fingers and toes. Andrew was the first to throw in the towel. After about 30 minutes he came to me crying “mommy I’m really cold” Marty and I were prepared for the snow since we have our ski gear so we were nice and toasty but we did the best we could for the kids although I know they were a lot colder than we were. Andrew was even wearing a pair of Abby’s tights to keep his little legs warm. It was so cute, we kept telling the kids while we were getting ready that we were going sledding. I know neither one of them knew what we were talking about because we have never had enough snow for sledding. But on the way home, Andrew said to me, “mommy, we didn’t go sleighing with Santa” I guess he thought we were going sleighing not sledding. Sleighing with Santa would have been fun too.
I hope you enjoy the pictures. I do have a few videos to put up but we can’t find the software for our video camera, so check back in a few days.

Yes, that's a air mattress they are riding on
