snow day.

Not a whole one where they were off from school or anything. But an unexpected snow day. They said just rain or freezing rain (which is what it started out as) but it quickly turned to big fat fluffy snowflakes that stuck. We ran home from school, located all the boots, hats and gloves (which was no small feat since most of that stuff was still in storage in the basement), geared up and went out.

I need to mention that the coats the boys are wearing are now fondly referred to as the "donut coat" as Jack said he hates it cause it's puffy and makes him feel like a giant donut. Gotta love that kid!

Uncle Nelson had the day off today so he stopped by and was quickly ambushed and brought right into the snowball fight fray. Timmy nailed him pretty good, as did the boys. I had the good "you can't throw snowballs at me cause I have the reeeeeeealy expensive camera" defense. However, Timmy caught me right in the chest with snow dripping down the inside of my shirt at school pickup. I had no camera then and no excuse. Sneak!!

After being outside for a while (why is it that it always takes longer to get dressed and undressed in all that snow crap than it does to actually play outside??) we came in and Uncle Nelson made us all some DEEEELICIOUS hot chocolate. He beat mine terribly– but being a chef and all, his should be better. Yum.
