Since we've no place to go...

Let's see...last time we had a big snowstorm, Justin and I were headed to the hospital in the middle of the night through sleet and snow for Caleb's birthday. This time around, the freezing temperatures and precipitation were much more enjoyable.

The skies dumped about four inches of snow on us, which proved to be just the right amount for making snow ice cream, snow angels, and a four foot tall snowman. We spent just about every waking daylight hour bundled up playing in below-freezing temperatures, and even a bit of time after the sun went down.

Caleb was kind of stunned by the flakes hitting his face, and had some difficulty sitting up due to the incredible amount of clothing he was wearing to stay warm. He did enjoy holding onto Justin's hands and walking through the snow. Time to get the boy some snow boots!

Abby's going to be pretty well hydrated for the next few days, seeing as all she wants to do with the snow is eat it. Maybe I could throw some frozen vegetables out in the yard...
