We really got snow.
I was beginning to think it might not come, but at 12:50 am Doug announced that it was piling up and I jumped out of bed to check for myself. The kids were awake at 6 and anxious to head outside, but we held them off until sunrise.
In the meantime, Matthew play acted with a snowplow and his "snowman" clothes.
We missed the Christmas snow, but I snagged some $4 snow pants in Mississippi that came in handy.
Stephen got "new" snow boots (50% off Saturday at Goodwill).
Jonathan wore an assortment of layers: Matthew's socks as mittens, my socks as "boots."
He was content for quite a while to sit bundled in the wagon watching the excitement, but eventually that got old; he wanted to participate. All too quickly he learned he couldn't walk in the snow, crawling didn't work either, and a faceplant in the white stuff wasn't much fun. We decided to head inside and leave the serious stuff to the big guys.
