The first real snow of the season

Today we got our first "real" snow fall of the season. I think we ended up with around 8 inches. Might get a couple more overnight and then they are calling for another storm on Sunday. Work closed 2 hours early so that was nice. After carefully driving home, the boys were outside shoveling and I joined them. Cody stayed out for a few minutes - he is NOT my outside boy. Dylan and Tyler played forever.

Cody enjoyed the snow (for a minute) then he preferred to go in with his Pokemon's!

Dylan and Tyler built up a little mound of snow and had to "sit" on it! Nothing like Tonka in the snow! These used to be Uncle Kevin's. Keep the boys busy for a couple hours. Molly loves the snow too!

We finally have snow!

Ready, Set, Go.... Cody's snow angel
My 3 Snowmen!
Tyler busy at work...
We are off for our first sled ride!

Well it appears the weather man was right - we got our snow. And it's still snowing. I guess we are expecting around 7" by the time it stops tomorrow. That's enough! After dinner tonight, I got all 3 boys dressed (not an easy task) and we went out for some snow time fun! They had a blast! Dylan got down the sled (that they got for Xmas but haven't been able to use), Cody was super excited to get to make his angel and Tyler was busy shoveling snow from my piles back onto the sidewalk and driveway! :)

Enjoy the pictures!!!

Brrrrrr....it's COLD outside!

We may live in New York and should be totally used to the winter weather - but - OMG it is so frigid out. It started yesterday as I was out shopping. I had parked the van and headed into Wal-Mart when a huge snow squal came through. I had to literally stop and catch my breath 3 times as it was that cold out. It hasn't warmed up! Driving home tonight the van read 17 degrees!

Finally expecting snow tomorrow! 4-8 inches of the white stuff. My boys might actually get to use their new winter boots and sled tomorrow. Dylan will be SUPER excited!
