It all started at 5:30 AM last Thursday morning when I got a call from the school canceling for the day. I then thought, oh we must of gotten the snow overnight that they had been talking about. Well, wrong...there was NO snow on the ground, they just cancelled because the reports were saying it would get bad quick. Well, they were right, by 12:00 PM it had started sleeting and by 2:00 PM the roads were getting pretty slick. On top of the ice came snow, and in some areas we got 11-12 inches. I love the ages of the kids they now are really enjoying going out in it. We have had some great snow playing times with family and friends so far, and there is still plenty on the ground as none of it has melted since it is still 28 degrees.
We were headed out to check on the snow situation...
Carter making his snow angel, and Molly about to try one too...
Chris's new toy...remember I told you we have a contract on some land, well, Chris went ahead and got a toy very needed means of transportation for once we are out there. And honestly the timing couldn't have been more perfect, he got it last Sunday. We have named it "The Parker" as our friends used to own it (we didn't buy it from them, but a guy in OK), it really is the craziest thing. We have had some fun on it already!
When we woke up on Friday morning this is what we saw...not even done yet...
On Friday afternoon we went and played at the Addington's house, and then had dinner at Nana Flynt's...snow and ice can't keep us home. Well it would keep me home, but if you know Chris, his mom and sisters you know they aren't afraid...
Looks like Chris ran her over, but really that is just where she decided to lay down and do her snow angel.
And at the end of it all here are all the tiny shoes...sure do love that we have lots of little lovers of snow!
