We woke to what some in Seattle were dubbing the Snowpocolypse, a blanket of snow on the ground about four inches deep, enough to keep us out of school and at home for a snow day. The kids could barely wait to get their winter clothes on and head out into the fluffy, white snow. For some reason they always want to clear the snow off my car, and they spent a great deal of time doing that. We built a mini-snowman which they promptly destroyed by throwing the snowballs at their dad. We tried our homemade versions of sleds (laundry baskets) to not much success, but some friendly neighbor kids let the kids borrow their sleds. We got a few good runs in on our awesome sledding hill. Addison was braver than Q and took a few more runs than he did (of course he said it was just because he was cold, not just cold, mind you, FROSTBITTEN). We spent the rest of the day by the fire and the kids were content to play video games and just look at the snow. Love having time with the family in these unexpected days off.
