Brrrrrrr- Where's my candles?

My birthday girl got snow for a present this year.

What's that white stuff?

SNOW DAY!!!

It snows so rarely here that it's quite the exciting event when it happens!

When you give a kid a camera...

These are the pictures you will get-

White Winter

Nothing like a good snow... that comes to visit for a short time, then melts away quickly. James could only stand being out in the cold for a short time too, but he loved being pushed around on the sled. The boys were disappointed that the snow didn't stay longer and kept trying to make snowballs out of pathetic amounts of snow for days after this "big" snow.

Winter Ends With a Blast!

Just four days away from the start of spring we were ambushed by snow. When it snowed in December I was too sick to take any photos, so I made sure to get outside and capture some this snowy Sunday. The children (and me) gleefully received the news that church was cancelled as we were putting on their snow pants to go outside.

Jeremy was at the church for early morning meetings during the snowfall and our car was covered with a few inches of white stuff by the time he came home. He had to brush the snow off the car before he could park it in the garage. After he went inside to change, the kids came in and needed to be warmed up with some hot chocolate. By early afternoon the sun had come out and the snow was melting away. I wasn't too sad though because I'm hoping for a warm spring to thaw out my cold winter bones.
