We had two reasonably sized snow snowstorms this year, which is just about the right amount for me. Enough that we can appreciate how pretty it looks and get outside for some fun snow play and hole up at home together. We did all of the above for the storms this year!
A few rounds of Settlers:
Cat snuggles (and goofy faces from brothers)
We put out birdseed and the cats were endlessly amused watching the birds and squirrels.
One of the storms was pretty close to blizzard like - so windy it was blowing sideways most of the day!
It didn't keep these guys from playing outside though! Sledding was no fun with the snow blowing in their faces, but they still had a blast playing!
He was outside so long he had icicles in his hair!
A little TV and reading time.
Lots of baking! I think in one storm alone, we had 3 loaves of bread, a batch of English muffins, and two batches of cookies.
James and I learned our lesson in PA and shoveled several times throughout the day. Beats dealing with it at the end! You can see how much it was snowing and blowing!
Charlie likes playing in the snow when it's done snowing. She was NOT a fan of it blowing in her face or sticking to her paws.
The animals were happy to hunker down anywhere cozy. We found Jingle curled up in the ski clothes bin and Bell hiding out in the pile of coats on the floor of the coat closet.
Another round outside; this time with some sledding!
Of course, you can't have a snow day and not build a fort, right? And then spend time inside the fort reading...
Worn out!
