Yipee! Snow! Well, we got our first big storm of the year! As far as we can guess...we got about 18 inches at our house! The temps were in the low 20s! They even cancelled church! Thanks to Dave for shoveling ALL of it off of the driveway and sidewalks. He shoveled 3 times! I got to stay nice and cozy warm inside with the kids. Kyle was a bit sick, so we didn't let him go out the first day. We decided a quick play in the snow on Sunday wouldn't be too bad. The outdoor trip started off perfectly....Santa was on a fire engine coming down our street! Kyle was shocked. He was just staring. After Santa left, he kept talking about it. And a real fireman came up to us and gave Kyle a candy cane! This was awesome for Kyle (and for me to see on Kyle's face). They even had on the really loud sirens! Then we played in the snow. Kyle wanted to make a snowman, but it was not very good packing snow this time. We did have a quick small snowball fight. Kyle had fun....but not a ton of fun. It was quite hard for him to walk in all of the snow and his snow boots. When we came inside, he said, "mommy, I guess the snow is o.k." Here are some pics...
the flag still stands!
Our driveway neighbor's step...I took this from inside.
The shovel man. Kyle told Dave he looked like a monster . This shot was taken in the middle of round 3 of shoveling
A pic of our neighbors across the street. Notice their 3 front steps are covered!

And a warm up in the bath! Cute huh? :)
