It Finally Snowed!

It snowed, it snowed! Okay, so most people think I'm crazy but Jessica and Joaquin have not seen a real snow storm ever...and finally it snowed enough to get off of school for a few days and to be snowed in. They expected to have snow at Christmas, because in all of the Christmas movies there is always snow on the ground. So when I put away the Christmas stuff they kept saying, "But it hasn't snowed yet!" I promised them it would snow, really snow soon enough and FINALLY it came! So needless to say we spent some time sledding and playing in the many inches that accumulated between yesterday and today.



You can't really see him, but poor Nate is on the bottom.

Jess said "Mom look, Popsicles are hanging on the trampoline" And of course they had to each eat a few. Gross I know.


We had some ice over night and then several more inches of snow, which caused for some beautiful scenery. So Jess went outside today and said, "Look MOM IT'S NARNIA!"

I am so glad the kids finally saw snow. It was absolutely beautiful outside today - kind of like a fairy tale scene. I'm sure the kids enjoyed the last few days in the snow.

What beautiful pics! We finally just experienced our first, true snow as well. Yet another first to tuck away and remember.

I can not believe you are JUST seeing snow. Come to Indiana and you will surely get your fill. We have been shoveling tons of snow since the beginning of December. Let's not forget the 30 below zero windchill. Bet Sofe wonders "where did they bring me?" Happy almost your birthday Jess.
