Snow angels

Current weather: 48F, Rainy and windy

You wouldn't believe it if you looked outside right now, but we had legitimate snowfall this morning. I left the house at 8:15 this morning to hit the grocery store and it had barely started to flurry, and by the time I walked out of the store at 8:45 there was a good inch of snow everywhere. We weren't expecting snow today! Over the course of about 4 hours we probably got about 3 inches of snow. The kids and I went to a Christmas party, and the roads were actually starting to get a little nasty. When we got home Kyle and Natalie decided it was absolutely imperative that they go in the backyard to play in the snow, so we broke out the snowpants, and I sent them outside with their daddy. Kyle ended up being very annoyed by how cold it was outside until Shaun made him a little snowman. Natalie just kept exclaiming how much she loved the cold and the snow. The girl was half frozen when it was time to come inside, but she didn't care because she had finally gotten to make her snow angel! She also had quite the fun time throwing snowballs at the windows. By late this afternoon the snow had turned to rain, and all of the snow in the yard is now washed away, but we enjoyed it while we had it!
