Snow?

I know this probably looks so pathetic to all of you in Colorado or Utah or ALASKA! But this is the most snow we've had this year. Sunday morning we woke up to a dusting of snow and the kids were beyond excited (this was what Evie had been praying for all winter!) So they bundled up for some pre-church fun in the snow. Luckily our church meetings got switched to 11am after the new year. Russell really hadn't ever seen snow (and still hasn't in my opinion), so he had fun checking it out. Clark threw a snowball at him and he looked at me with a completely shocked look on his face. I had to help him scrape together a very small and grassy snowball and point him towards Daddy. He got the idea after that.

Evie really misses the snow we had in Philadelphia. One year we slid down the huge pile of snow left by the snow plow at our apartment. Fun stuff. She's excited about getting back to the snow when we're in Idaho next winter. There are snow angels to make and snowballs to throw. But for now this little bit of snow was almost as exciting.
