We really should have known. This year we have had SO MUCH rain and it has been SO COLD, it was really just a matter of chance that everything would happen again at the same time for another set of snow days. This one was known well in advance and everyone was completely freaked out by the time it actually happened. There was no school on Tuesday, and yes, there was snow, but it stayed about freezing all day and nothing really stuck. It started snowing again Wednesday morning and basically snowed continuously for 36 hours. The "new tradition" I started two weeks ago was done again...Chocolate Snow Waffles.
Speaking of HUGE treats, Grandma got James and Andy sleds! They were very confused when they first saw them. "what is that, a boat?"
The neighborhood kids were very thankful! We had some snowball fights, but less this time. I think it was because of all the sledding.
We were really like sledding locust. We would sled a hill until it was destroyed and then move on to the next one. This is Ms. Becky. (+1)
Kwist boys! Turns out all the hills in our neighborhood are great for sledding!
I also have to say I think this was the first time that Mark and I have ever been on a sled. We had a great time! Much butter than cookie sheets.
Of course we had to build a snowman!
As it got warmer and the kids got tired of the snow, we had some scavenger hunts.
So, it was fun, the snow melted, and then there was ANOTHER snow day.
