Snow Day

Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!
The snow that normally falls in Williamsburg can best be described as a dusting. Well, yesterday we got real snow. The kind of snow I remember as a child... snow all day, wind, cold, shovel the driveway only to have it covered again by the time you finish type snow. I think we got almost a foot. Our street has yet to be plowed; the county normally just waits for any snow that falls here to melt. This time that approach may be a problem since it is only going to be in 20s today. W&M basketball games, birthday parties, and baby showers postponed, church cancelled... but Bryce still got out in the 4-wheel drive so that Nina and the girls could come over for dinner.

Here are some pictures from our day playing in the snow. The boys actually lasted a lot longer then I anticipated. About an hour both times we were out; pretty impressive considering neither of them have snow pants or snow boots. We improvised with rain boots and wind pants...

Braden got the hang out it pretty quickly...


Thank you to Garrison who waded through a near riot to get us this sled and to Kathleen for loaning us her extras. The boys can't wait to get out again today for more sledding!
