Record setting snow

Weekend snow storm... aka Snowmageddon. I tried to go play in the snow on Saturday... but I just got stuck at the front door.



Once I got out of the front door it was more fun getting stuck in the snow. I caught snowflakes on my tongue while making snow angels.



No one found it necessary to plow during the storm. Some crazy neighbors with big trucks made sure there were two tire tracks to walk in. The snow was so tall!



By Sunday, there were some better paths for walking...



and driving. I could see over the snow much better on Daddy's shoulders. It was a bit icy, but I just thought it was fun when he slipped. He never dropped me. (There were a couple of close calls though.)



Everything got covered again yesterday. We got another ~foot of snow. I didn't get to go out and play though. I got sick. boo!! Daddy is sick too. He's been sleeping all day.

Getting sick when you have "snow days" is no fun! You should be able to enjoy the time you get off to just play. Oh well, you (and your dad) will get better soon (we hope) and then you can enjoy the snow some more. You did look a bit "short" for the amount of snow; so, you will have to grow even faster so that you can see over the snow drifts (and jump into them from above the next time)...

Wow, that's a lot of snow. I'm glad you had fun playing in it. Who was the lucky one who got to do the shoveling?

You do know that you can catch snow on your tongue only after it has snowed the first time? That's so all the yukky stuff in the air gets cleared out (This is especially important in Chicago & the big cities). Oh, and don't ever eat or play in the yellow snow!
