Snow in October!

We looked out the window this morning to find snow! Max and Maddie were so excited. They couldn't wait to get out there and play in it. As soon as Maddie saw the snow she ran to get her coat. The kids had a great time, playing in the snow. Maddie thought it tasted pretty yummy and despite both Bret and I telling her not to eat snow she would sneak a bite whenever she could.



Bret and Max decided they wanted to build a snow man before all the snow melted.


We had a lot of fun rounding up things to decorate our snow man. I think he turned out pretty good.



We are really glad we build him when we did because now it is mid afternoon and all the snow is melted, but our snow man is still standing :).

Well, there you have it! You got an updated family picture afterall! ;-) You’ll just have to give that snowman a name….

Wow, I can’t believe you’ve had snow already. What a fun morning for the family. Great job on the snowman.

So cute! I can’t believe winter has hit there. It is now cool enough here to enjoy the outdoors. I did a 5k on Friday, and had a wonderful bike ride on Saturday. I don’t want to return to the snow! That is quite possibly the cutest snowman ever. And the pic is awesome. I’d love it if you printed off a 5×7 for me that I can frame. Super cute!

That looks so fun. We don’t get much snow out here. My kids will be so jealous! Way to go on a fabulous looking snow man. Good family fun.

Wow, you guys got a lot more snow than us. It just blew around for a while and never stuck down here. Great job with the snow man, I am impressed you got so much snow for your snowman.

Looks like you had a lot of fun! To bad the snow didn’t last longer.
