Snow Days 2010!!!

By the time Friday rolled around, the anticipation for snow was to an all-time high; 3-5 inches were to be expected. Schools were releasing students early, folks were making their panic trip to the Supermarket for bread & milk (which… I don’t understand, milk-sandwich anyone?), & the local power company was placing phone calls to local businesses. Meanwhile, I was a naysayer thinking, “they always make a big fuss about snow & it never happens… ugh!”

Fast forward a few hours & it’s starting to smell like snow. Next thing you know there are flurries coming down which moments later transformed into mammoth flakes. Hallelujah! I then proceeded with a brief snow celebration dance before deciding to give myself the remainder of the day off. I jumped in the car & went to the hacienda for some serious family quality time. The rest my friends is history… the proof is below.

Joy captured this image of Brennan & I as we began to to build “The Man” (aka. snow man).

When it comes down to it, all Brennan really cares about is eating the snow.

My snow building skills are quite lacking, hence, Joy had to take over.

We went “all out” decorating the snow man. Can’t you tell?

Knox stayed warm inside. We made him a pallet in front of the front door so he could be in on the fun.

Seriously, Knox has one of the best personalities I know. He is such a pleasure.

Brennan wanted to wear one of daddy’s ties. He was also jealous for our dog, Bailey, to wear the tie.

With two boys under the age of 2, I try to squeeze in naps whenever I can. These snow days have absolutely worn me out.

Every time I lay down, little ones are sure to follow.

I could watch this for the rest of my life!
