Snow Day

It snowed on Friday and someone was very excited about the snow. She was all excited to make a snow octopus but she was feeling a little sick so we will have to wait until the next snow for that fun!

It was the loudest snow ever! You could hear every snowflake fall! It was very pretty to watch.

They predicted 1-3 inches and we got 5 inches. It is amazing living in the north to see how wonderful they clean the roads! The snow plows were out on Friday being followed by a salt truck to help melt the snow. The roads were dry on Saturday morning. This southern girl is very impressed!

We did not play outside in the snow but we played “snow ball fight” downstairs in the warm and dry basement! Best day ever!

Then he made his own tunnel on this toy! Boys are so much fun!

  1. YES--isn't it amazing how they clear the roads?? Our *neighborhood* was always plowed at LEAST once, if not twice, before Matt left for work on snowy mornings. It always cracked me up to see what seemed like every pick-up in town with a plow attached to it roaming the roads once the snow started falling. It is an amazing thing to live somewhere snow does not HAVE to = stuck in your house for days on end. :) I hope Kaitlin is feeling better and can make that octopus your next round of white stuff! :) I'm glad you're enjoying your first northern winter. :)
