Life Is Funny: First Snow
Monday, December 7, 2009 at 9:37AM MAD21 By MAD21
This past Saturday we had the first snow of the season. If you didn't know that most of the east got hit with it, then apparently you didn't hear my daughters squealing with delight about it for HOURS. When we first woke up it was raining, then it rained and snowed for an hour or so. HUGE flakes among the rain, kinda weird, but very cool. Then the rain finally went away and it was all snow. The biggest flakes we've seen in a long time.
Unfortunately, the ground is still a little warm. The snow didn't stick to the sidewalks or roads at all, and probably only accumulated about an inch or two. But it snowed aaaalll day and into the night. It was beautiful. My girls begged to go out and play in it insisting they put on all of their usual snow gear head-to-toe. And they were off. I figured they would be out playing for just a little while since there really wasn't much snow to play in, and it was wet and cold. Their Daddy went out with them so I could do some work inside the house. I had no desire to get cold and wet when it looked like it was just slush out there.
