living in a snow globe

Thursday morning we woke up to 11 inches of snow! Although it was awfully early, it was very beautiful and we couldn't help getting excited about it.
Caden shoveling a path to the bus -a picture i took on my phone to show Shawn, who was gone, what our snowfall looked like! (yes, it's still working on getting light outside when the older kids get on the bus after 8:00!)
Abram was rearing to go outside and play in it, and since he had no siblings that he could tag along with, I got to go play in the snow for a couple of hours.  Before we went out I got him all excited about building a snowman, so when we got out and discovered that it wasn't good packing snow there was no turning back.  We had to build a snowman with a spray bottle in hand!



Abe didn't like riding- here he is pulling me in the sled-good arm work-out for me:)
Suddenly fall decor didn't look like it fit anymore



After the snow melted quite a bit it became great packing snow, and the kids spent a couple of nights working until after dark building a snow fort.
This fort got up over Caden's head and looked like a castle with turrets by the time they were done

They day after they completed it, everything warmed up and the snow melted. I think we are back to fall just in time for Halloween.

  1. Wow!!! So much snow already?! I am very impressed with your snowman given that you had to make it with a spray bottle. What a good Mom you are! No picture of the finished snow fort? I bet it was impressive!

  3. What a trooper you are! I don't know if I could play in the snow for a couple of hours. Looks so lovely, though!
