What can be better than not having to go to school and getting to be with my kiddos at home.... snow! I have never in my life (that would be all &%$#! years of it) seen snow like this. It was gorgeous coming down with flakes the size of my palm and it was amazing when it settled - 1 ft. in our yard! We did have the BIGGEST SNOWBALL FIGHT EVER. Jackson built a fort to hide behind, Grace was more to using the scream and run to attack method and Maddie... well, we found her accessorizing the snowman which was hand crafted beautifully with the help of our incredible friends Shelli and Brett who grew up in Nebraska and knew how to handle all this. Walker held his own during the snowball fight even sneaking up on adults and pelting them in the back ... and then running for his life. It really was amazing.
We also did a little hillbilly snow sledding on a deflated plastic swimming pool and plastic tub lids due to the fact that NO ONE OWNED A SLED. The kids thought it was the bomb.... and they can talk about how hillbilly it was when they are older and blaming us for tacky things in their lives such as this.I love it! Great Memories.
Sure, rub it in...all of that while Uncle Adam built a giant snowman by himself.
