Fun in the Snow

We had another snowstorm which brought us much accumulation (over a foot of snow). Of course we couldn't let it go to waste. Andrew spent most of his time being held by Mom or up on the patio drawing with sidewalk chalk. We built a snowman, built a little fort to protect us from the invading snowman, buried the kids in the snow, had a juggling show, made a throne for the "royal" family, & had a really great snowball fight. Amazingly, no tears (even when Joseph caught a snowball with his mouth). Dad almost cried from his aching back after shoveling all of that very wet & heavy snow. Mom was reminded once again to add snowpants for her to the shopping list. Too bad this didn't happen during the work week so Dad could have a day off.
