Snow snow snow!






So.. we haven't posted in a very long time so I finally decided that instead of trying to post a millions pictures on Facebook, I should really start up the blog again. The snow started last night and I was very happy that it kept snowing and wasn't melted like the other times. I wasn't sure when it was going to actually snow, there seems to be a bubble around the Charlotte area where the winter fronts start at the mountains and jumps over the RDU area. This morning it was still snowing and so pretty outside! We learned that church was cancelled and later that day we went out to enjoy the snow.

The kids loved the snow, it was perfect snowman packing snow. The year before it was just powdered snow with a layer of ice so this was great. Cordelia was all about it, she starting to throw snowballs and walk around in the snow, Jaime followed quickly behind her but I had to quickly remind them to not throw the snowballs in each others faces. Manny was kind of wary at first..the snow was deep and he didn't like that the snow kept covering up his feet but he then loved making footprints in the snow and waving to the cars driving by. Alex got some baskets out and they all started filling up the buckets with snow to make a snowman which then became a snow monster. After making some snow angels, it was time to go in for some hot chocolate and marshmallows.




Look at the snow!
