Another Snowy Day

This round of snow took us by surprise as we weren't "supposed" to get anything.  Maybe an inch at the most the weatherman said while Va Beach and places in North Carolina were going to see record amounts of snowfall.  Well, the precipitation shifted west and...we got more snow!  It was really cold again which  meant that again it was light and fluffy snow.  Hannah and Owen are dying to make a snowman and we haven't been able to yet, but we did get out for some more snow fun.  Uncle Troy and Wesley joined us this time too.  It was easy to stay out and play with warmer temperatures than the week before and no crazy windchill to deal with.  Although we did enjoy warming up with hot chocolate when we came inside.

 Uncle Troy helps the boys make a mountain of snow.
 Our little boys love to be helpers like their daddies...this time Wesley gets in on the shoveling action.

 Owen gets a kick out of his dump truck getting stuck in the snow as the back wheels spin and spin with no traction.

 Owen's diggers were hard at work on this snow day.

 Snow days make us so happy!

 The three musketeers line up to race down the driveway on their sleds!
 Uncle Troy and Wesley go down together.  It's a good thing us grown ups have an excuse to play out in the snow.  We have as much fun as Hannah, Owen, and Wesley!


 Uncle Troy stops to warm up Wesley's hands...so sweet.

 Owen sports a snow mustache after diving into his snow mountain.  This was too funny and we couldn't help but laugh!
Daddy takes a turn working on snow mountain with a request from Owen for some tunnels.
 Can't make a snow man...this is the next best thing!

Hannah works hard "clearing roads" as she said and then making snow birthday cakes complete with stick candles.  Yes, we did have to sing Happy Birthday for every cake that was made!
 The combination of snow and snowsuits make the slide extra fast!
 Swinging in the snow...why not?!
