Snow day! You know what that means? It means we bundled the kids up in clothes until the excitement of going outside completely drained away.


We even joined in the non-fun!
Eventually we made it outside and discovered that we’d gotten approximately two feet of snow.
We had to make a snowman, which Liza spent some time peering at.
I made Eli pose with the snowman, by which I mean I pointed the camera at the snowman and Eli said, “Dad, take my picture too!”
We also had snow ice cream and snowball fights and walked around listening to the very silent city. We never get snow, not like this, so we’ve had a great time playing in it. Hey, people who live in snowier climes, is this what your life is like?
I am glad that a greater-than-Liza-sized snowman made an appearance. Also, I approve of the non-traditional snowman.
Love your snowman! I was lazy and didn’t take Z out to play in the snow. The idea of all that bundling and layering was too daunting.
Not really. We’re mostly over it. Looks like y’all had fun though. 🙂
Nah, the snow isn’t a filthy black slush, so it’s nothing at all like NYC snow.
don’t listen to katre. he’s just bitter from the shoveling. the kids had a glorious time with the snow before it turned black.
That’s usually what our life is like after the first snowfall of the year. All of the rest of them are generally met with a collective, “Noooooooo….”
