Last weekend we had a huge snowstorm here. We got 22.5 inches (official report) of "no" (AKA snow--still working our s blends here)!!! The kids helped shovel and really liked finding "noballs" AKA huge chunks of snow. We didn't get to do any sledding because they are getting a sled for Christmas and I was scared to lose them in the 22 inches or at the very least have their boots come off. Imagine the tears. They did not like getting snowflakes in their eyes at all! We had enough tears between that and the frustration of trying to use mittens and the shovel. I'm inventing mittens with grippers on them---probably already invented but now I'm on the search for them.

Hey! there's the snow we were supposed to get. LOL
It looks so pretty and Christmasy, doesn't it? I LOVE it!
The upside of being up since 4:30 is that I can catch up on my blog reading! :) They are too cute and I'm so glad they enjoyed the snow! Alex HATED the gloves and then HATED the snow on his hands. We couldn't win. Hope Kaylie feels better soon!
Have a Merry Christmas. BTW cracking up at the crooked belted santa.
Oh wow! Just look at the snow! So unlike here.
OK, "No"balls made me put my head down on the desk I was freaking laughing so hard. That is awesome!
