Blizzard of 2015

Our snow storm was (thankfully!) no where near a blizzard, but it was enough snow for us to play in. I think the boys had the most fun the night it started. We took them outside to catch the huge flakes in the dark. They were mesmerized! Alex wanted to eat the snow, so we put some on a plate on the kitchen table – you’d have thought I’d just served them an ice cream cake. They went nuts and even ended up making snowballs and throwing them to Kovu (who likes snow way too much for an African dog)!

By the time we’d eaten breakfast and gotten dressed, the snow was already starting to melt. This was great for the roads, but a problem with our snow adventures! Our snowman was covered in mud and sledding was a bust. Oh well! At least we had another snow ball fight!

They enjoyed the ride up the hill much better than the ride back down.
