On February 16th we got our first real batch of snow. Around here we usually do not get a lot of snow and I cannot remember the exact number of inches it seems to me it was at least 6 inches.
The boys were pretty excited and we ended up missing four days of school that week. For Monday though Thursday the both the boys and Olivia had fun playing in the snow. Later in the early afternoon when the snow stopped we had everyone get all bundled up and head outside.
This was Livvy's first real experience with the snow and didn't seemed to be too bothered by it. Because she hadn't started walking on her own she was having fun just crawling around in the snow and moving around it around.
The boys were out playing in the snow a little longer then Livvy, but they all had fun with it. There was some thoughts on trying to build a snowman or fort but with the temp being so cold it was a very light and fluffy and snow. So this idea was abandoned and they restored to just throwing snow at each other.
One of the things both Sup and Thomas really wanted to do was to make snow angels. I think we ended up with about five angels in our front yard. It was nice that could have fun and get some fresh air for a little bit : )
After Daddy got up the boys wanted to help shovel the sidewalk. They were actually a good help and each had their own shovel to do their share : ) I am not sure if people really don't care about the side walk or driveways around here but we seem to be one of just a few people in our neighborhood that do this. Behind the boys is actually the street which at doesn't look touched, and we never see a plow truck even come down our street so it makes it lots of fun to get in and out : (
