Snow!

We woke this morning with a surprise outside...SNOW!  The kids were so excited.  They ate their breakfast quickly and geared up to go outside.  We rarely get snow, and this was about a 1/2" dusting of snow.  The kids had a ball.  They were out for about 2 hours in the snow until it melted.

Even our cat Lucy went outside in the snow for some fun

Haley and Drew love to play in the snow

Drew about ready to make a jump in the snow

Haley, Grace (Sydney's friend), Sydney and Drew worked together to make a snowman.  After a few minutes they kicked him to smithereens.

The kids played with the snow in the front yard too!
By 10am most all of it had melted.  Thankfully it lasted long enough for the kids to enjoy it for a few hours!

Wow! I bet your snow is rare! But I am impressed that you have all the necessary snow gear nonetheless!
