Snow What Fun

Monday afternoon the flakes began to fall and Madison was eager to play in her first snow of the year. She quickly dressed in her pink snow gear and headed into the back yard for a bit of play.
Her favorite thing to do is to pile as much snow as possible at the bottom of her slide and slide down into it. It is great fun to watch.






Tuesday morning dawned with the overwhelming surprise of 12 inches of snow.





With just over 12 inches of snow, it was no surprise that schools were closed for 2 days.

Rob was able to work from home that day and after finishing his report for work, he and Madison headed out to shovel the driveway. (I stayed inside and took pictures from the upstairs bedroom window- where it was warm!)




Madison alternated helping Rob and playing in the snow. She made some great snow angels!


A little over 40 minutes later, the driveway was clear and Madison had her first snow Mountain.


It was a great snow day!
