OH SNOW!!

We had the first REAL snow of 2012 a few days ago & boy did my boys enjoy it!

 Rick collected plenty of snow for the traditional snow cream...

 Connor was beyond thrilled to help me make it...

 Hard at work

 So proud of his yummy finished product!

 Cade even got in on the snow cream action...he liked it a little too much

 This was Cade's first time in the snow...we don't have gloves small enough for him so he didn't last long!

 Rick, Cade, Connor & Big Jim sitting on the big pile of snow!

 Mrs. Karen warming up Cade

 The biggest snow ball of the day!

 Connor just dropped in the snow & decided to make a snow angel

 The beautiful finished product!

 Popa Bear stopped by & got in on the snow ball action!

 These 2 handsome guys attacked me as an innocent by stander...

The biggest snow angel I've ever seen

 You can almost see how deep the snow was from where it was cleared from our driveway & sidewalk

 Oh Snow.  I love you, but I loathe you.  I can handle you in small spurts.  It's not you that I completely dislike, but it's the other relatives you bring with you...you know...RIDICULOUS Wind & Crazy Cold Temperatures.  If you came alone, I would be more apt to accept you, but since you insist on coming with all your relatives, I choose not to call you friend.
