Snow

Well, they predicted it and they were right - surprising, I know. We were treated to a snowstorm on Friday that lasted until Saturday morning. While I love snow and have been hoping for "the big one" for a while, I did not want it to happen this weekend. Ellie and I were going to take a trip to visit Nana and Pop this weekend. We were all disappointed about not being able to go in the storm, but at least Nana and Pop still have the Superbowl to look forward to today :-) I had a dream last night that the Colts won and the score was 98 to 12! We'll see if my dream comes true later today.

The snow on Friday was really big, pretty snowflakes and it was PERFECT for making a snowman. We used a carrot for the nose and Austin loaned his scarf that Grandma made. Ellie found some branches for the arms and we made some hair from a few twigs. Our snowman was pretty big, but I did not do a great job in making it stable. John worked on it, but it still took a tumble overnight. Poor thing.

John helped the kids make two forts. There is one back by the swingset and one out by the driveway that has a tunnel. Hopefully Ellie and Austin can get out to play today, too!
