Kati has been asking when it would snow here for a few weeks now. Her desire for snow deeply intensified when she saw picture of her cousins in another state playing in it. Just yesterday she was asking me about it again. Sadly I had to tell her I didn't think she would get to see any but "maybe". This morning Jeff told me to look outside and surprise we had snow! So for three more hours I waited very impatiently to wake the kids. When I woke them I told Kati there was a surprise but we had to get dressed first. At first she was not to keen on the idea of putting pants over her warm p.j.'s but when this child can say she is cold when it is 90 outside I knew she would need to be bundled for this. She was so excited with the anticipation of what the surprise was when we kept adding clothes, and hats and gloves. She asked "Do I need to close my eyes for the surprise?" I asked if she wanted to and she said yes. Then she couldn't wait to close then but it takes a long time to get two kids all bundled. We took a break half way through because Growly Bear made an appearance. He has to eat first thing. We went in and had sausage biscuits and as Kati calls it, "hot coffee". It's really only hot chocolate but I think she wants to be like Uncle Jared. We are saving the backyard play for when Daddy gets home.
The most pitiful snowman you have ever seen but there wasn't a lot of snow.
Brendon was enjoying all the birds that were out to play in the snow

This is Bug learning about icicles. If you will notice there is no picture of Bear with one. I handed it to him and said "Stay here with it Buddy, it's sharp." So naturally Brendon immediately begins to run with it.
