Let it Snow!!!!

As natives of Colorado say, "if you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes and it will change" This couldn't have been more true the last couple days in October. The weather reports said to plan on lots of snow for the metro area - up to 24 inches in some areas. Being skeptical that almost two feet would fall, we carried on with our days. Well, as the day progressed, Wednesday October 28th, more and more snow fell. Working for Adams County I knew that there is no way I would ever get a snow day, but one could hope. The day progressed, more and more snow fell. We got word that the office would close early to let everyone get home safely....I was so excited. I hoped for a snow day the next day, Thursday, October 29th, but in checking the office line, we only got to start late. I figured that since we left early the day before, and were getting a late start the second day, being released early again was not going to happen...it did. On Thursday afternoon, the snow finally began to slow down, so I got home with the kids early, and we decided to take Haylee out to play. Enjoy the pictures of the family playing in the snow!

  1. Haylee looks like a little snow princess, while sweet Carter looks like he's frozen solid! I'm sure he was really toasty warm, however his little eyes have that look in them--"Mom, Dad, get me out of here!" Ha! I also love how the photos look like they were taken from the vantage point of a nice, warm house . . . hmmmm . . . figuring that mommy is not in any of the photos, is it safe to say that she was busy inside keeping the cats company? :)
