Well, our snow started around 7:30 pm tonight.
They were really small flakes and you had to squint your eyes and look into the light to see them at all.
Well, this was thrilling! ha! Finally, our turn for the SNOOOOOOOOOOOWW!! So, I yelled out to Emma, she ran outside and tried so hard to see the snow, but she had to stare and get right in the light to see anything at all, but she too, was THRILLED! :)
So, of course I let her go out and play in it and she did... for probably 20 minutes.. just running around swirling and twirling in the yard.
Then it was bathtime. At this point, there was still no accumulation whatsoever on the ground, but you could see that the flakes were starting to get a bit bigger.
So into the bathtub she and Noah went.
30 minutes later, when bathtime was over and jammies were on, we looked out the backdoor and this is what we saw...

Holy Sh-nikes!!
I was dumbfounded. Seriously could. not. believe that this much snow had fallen in the 30 minute time frame that I had the kids in the tub.
So, I put Noah to bed (he was soooooo fussy) and I stripped Emma of her jammies and bundled her up and the rest was winter wonderland history!!! :) :) :) :)
This cracked me up when we went in for a brief warm-up in front of the fire... Livi's tag was completely coated in snow! ha!
We made a baby snowman and since he was a baby snowman, we put a paci in his mouth... and in case you're wondering, his nose is a pickle, his eyes are Hershey's kisses, and his hat is... a measuring cup. ;)
We've already got at least 3 inches and it's still coming down hard. That means you'll be getting another snow blog tomorrow!!!! WOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

I am glad you are having a chance to enjoy a winter wonderland!
