We got our first snow storm on Wednesday and the boys have been having a blast… They have been spending hours in the snow, yesterday going out in the morning, coming in for lunch and then heading out for a few more hours in the afternoon and coming in when it started to get dark…

having them outside gives me a little more energy to get a few things done in the house or just relax with some quiet time of my own.

Here are some pics from my little snowmen… (we got a little more than 30cm in my area, so a bit more than a foot)

Of course having this snow means that the tractor comes to clear our driveway which in turn is the return of “snowy mountain” in our front yard… which at its peak, is usually about twice the height of the accumulated snow fall…

In the past it has looked like this…

The boys can spend hours sliding and falling and hiding in the big pine tree etc…they can’t wait for more snow now!
