Last month on January 20th, this is what our house looked like in the storm that dumped about 6-8 inches of snow onto the streets all around our neighborhood and the surrounding area! It was great!
Needless to say, we had some eager kids anticipating play time out in the snow!
From the previous night until about noon or 1 pm that same day, the snow was coming down quite hard, so we all played inside at our neighbors house for a couple of hours and enjoyed some hot cocoa!
After lunch, the snow fall finally stopped and so the kids went back out after having braved it for a little while that morning. They collected enough snow to make a snow man (with the parents help of course!) We had a mini carrot and some raisins for the facial features. :)
Later that afternoon, we all found a great hill to sled down that was just a few blocks away and had a great time with a bunch of other neighbors who had the same idea! The snow lasted or rather didn't melt away for about two more days, so we enjoyed a little bit more play time in it and a bit more sledding too.
