This is what we woke up to Saturday morning!! The kids were so excited, they had been predicting snow for a few days now but we never take the weatherman serious, they tend to over react to storms here. By the time we woke up it was not snowing any more just wet cold sleet. The kids played for hours, only coming in to eat and dry their clothes that had got soaked through their snow stuff, the snow was so wet. It was soooo cold, my kids are crazy. On Sunday everything was frozen. The trees were so beautiful. These poor trees were about to snap, I am surprised they didn't. They usually are about 5 feet above the kids heads. We went out and ice skated all around the yard. The snow was frozen solid. You have to be creative when you don't have any snow equipment. They found out that this shovel slid the best down our slight slope in the yard. We tried a boogie board with a plastic bag over it, but it did not work when there are no hills. Everything was starting to melt a little by mid morning, but we got the call that school was going to be canceled on Monday due to ice, they are so weird about things here. And today being Monday, is beautiful and sunny with dry roads.

Your kids are always so creative! What a fun snow storm! You have more snow than us....it is just ugly grass around here!
Im glad you got a little snow to play in finally. I love the ice on the trees. Oregon did that same thing about once a year, It's beautiful.
