Isn't this lovely?? We woke this morning to a good foot and a half of heavy wet snow. Can't complain... I guess? We needed the moisture, so here it is!
The kids at least made good use of the day. Mike helped to build this snow fort that Ethan and his cousin Spencer proudly claimed as their own! Don't forget about Dexter, if you look close you can see his best feature standing out behind the fort!
Props to Renaissance! On Ethan's last winter expedition, they taught the kids how to make a snow shelter for survival. Not that we need to survive outdoors in these condition's, but at least we know how if it ever comes to that! I love that school.
Our poor tree's took the biggest hit. After a long cold winter, we thought they would pull through. That was until this morning's heavy snow overpowered the fragile branches and gave way. You can see how they broke clean off and fell to the bottom of the tree. Looks a little naked now, don't ya think?
Gabrielle was well equipped...with one glove that is! Needless to say, her time in the snow was short spent.
Isabella was glamorous as usual. I mean really, how could you play in the snow without Dora goggles? Anything less would be absurd!
Don't tell Abbi about the snow fort. We kind of like Ethan the way he is and let's face it, he's the only boy we've got!
Madison chose to spend the day indoors wearing her pajama's, sipping hot cocoa and watching movies nestled in front of the warm fireplace. That's my girl!

Yeah an update! I really enjoyed all the pictures and info about your snow day. I do miss it. It looks so fun. Now if Mike would have gotten out the quad and pulled the kids on the sled I would have been really jealous! Miss you guys. I love what a diva little Bella is.
It was 84 today and the kids were asking to run through the sprinklers! Crazy!
holy cow!! that's crazy, and you're trying to talk us into moving back? I don't know what we'd do, lock ourselves inside... on the upside, I'm sure your kids had a ton of fun and it will be summer soon enough. Loved the update! miss you guys, Macy loved the pictures of the girls.
