Snow Globe

On Tuesday night, it literally felt like we were stuck inside a snow globe - we watched out our windows as snow was falling like crazy and blowing everywhere. Fifteen or so inches later, we were snowed in for two days!!

Hard to see but the snow is piled up as high as our swing set after being plowed!


A glimpse of just some of the snow against our house

The kids were mesmerized watching the snow plow from our laundry room window. Ben and I have never been so thankful to have a snow removal service - it took Ben over 2 hours just to snow blow our sidewalks. I can't begin to imagine how long our driveway would've taken!!


After Ben's sidewalk excursion, he spent another hour digging our kids a snow fort....he was one busy daddy!

Our kids couldn't be more different when it comes to snow - Paige LOVES it. She doesn't mind being cold and certainly doesn't mind getting a little snow on her face. She had a ball sledding, sliding, shoveling and hiking in the snow.

Paige after face planting - happy as can be!

Will, on the other hand, was done after about 5 minutes. We're going to have to work on him and his tolerance of cold!!

We did manage to have a few moments of happiness from our little guy - and lots of fun snow memories for our family!!

That looks like so much fun! I have fond memories of making snow forts in the piles at the end of our driveway. We haven't had a massive snow recent enough for Maren to enjoy it...hopefully soon!
