Snow Days

We had not one, but TWO snow days in the same week in January. It started snowing in the afternoon on Wednesday, Jan. 16. I was alerted to this fact by a squealing Bridget, who was outside swinging at the time. It was the first snow we've had since the girls have been with us -- they were very excited!! I was so happy that they got to see the huge snowflakes falling and got to play in the snow until it got dark. Here are some pix of the girls in the snow:




It snowed again on the following Saturday, Jan. 19. When we got up that morning, sleet was falling. I really didn't think we'd get any snow, but it warmed up a few degrees from 32 to 36 and the sleet started turning to snow. It wasn't the huge flakes we'd had on Wednesday, but it snowed much of the day, so the accumulation was actually greater. We had about 2 inches fall on Saturday, enough to make a snowman.

A good time was had by all throwing snowballs and making snow angels.
