Snow! (updated)

I so doubted it was really going to snow. Boy, was I wrong!



Here are some pics and video we took yesterday afternoon. It was CRAZY how much snow came out of nowhere, for the first time in 6 years here. So glad we got to be here for it and that Brian was home to enjoy it. He and I had a mad snow ball fight in the backyard. It was so much fun. Reminded me of our youth. =) And Sam ate so much snow, he nearly cleaned up the yard for us.

A hilarious video of me trying to sled. And trying to get Sam to sled. I think I blew my chances at mother of the year. =)

Brian throwing snowballs at Sam. He would just grab them and eat them. It was funny.

You really don't know much about snow! That snow was too wet and sticky to be good sledding--once the snow sticks to the bottom of your sled, you're doomed. Snow that makes really good snowballs isn't good to sled on, and good sledding snow just won't make a snowball. But looks like you had fun! And pitching Sam down the hill--now you understand what it's like to be an oldest/only child from the parental point of view!! Isn't he good to practice on?!!

Love ya! Mom
