Snow

We got more snow. It started snowing early Saturday morning and kept going, pretty lightly falling, until evening. We didn't get nearly as much snow as the storm right before Christmas, but it was enough to play in (and to cancel church, which is why I'm sitting here blogging about it in my sweats instead of yelling at everyone to get in the car right now).


Princess Sparkley lounging on a sled. She'd spin in circles every once in awhile. The kids biggest complaint is that in Kansas, our front yard had a small hill to it. Not in Virginia. PS found a tiny dip in the backyard to push Baby X down on the sled. And I spotted Buddy next to our front step trying to slide down a dip that was about a foot long. We'll have to try to figure out where a good sledding hill in Virginia is. Who'd have thought that we'd have a better sledding hill in Kansas?


Buddy was the first one out and shoveled the sidewalk a little bit.


Once Baby X figured out what was going on, he wanted in on the fun. So I convinced PS to go in the backyard, where Baby X is trapped, and play in the snow with him. Here she is giving him a push down the teeny dip in the corner of our yard.


He liked the dip.


Maybe he'll grow up to love shoveling like his dad and his brother.


He thought it was hilarious that I put two pairs of socks on him and two pairs of mittens and two pairs of pants. It was in the 20s!


Buddy got bored with shoveling and moved to the backyard before everyone came in for some hot chocolate.
