Yesterday Megan woke me up at 6:30 am to inform me that there was snow in the backyard. Except it was “Mommy, Mommy! There is SNOW in our BACKYARD! Come look!” Followed almost immediately by “Do I have to go to school today? I want to go play in the snow!” She did in fact have to go to school, and the snow was all slushy anyway, so there wasn’t any playing outside in it.
However, more came down last night and this morning. And it was nice snow to play in, even if the grass was poking up through it. So, even though the windchill made it feel below freezing (and because they were driving us insane cooped up inside) we took the girls out for a quick romp in the snow. They had a blast, and it really helped their behavior 🙂
Anyone else think we’re in for a long, snowy winter?

Oh yes. Snow days are great! Too bad she had to go to school. haha.
WOW! Snow already… we haven’t had anything more than a flurry on one day. The kids look like they had a blast though!
