Snow Day!

Well, today is officially a snow day.  A lovely snow storm swooped in yesterday afternoon and left us with about 8" of snow on the ground.  "Thundersnow" was what they called it because there was lightning and thunder at the same time as the snow.  It was pretty cool!

This morning I took Noa out for her morning walk.  The wet, heavy snow caused a lot of our trees and tree branches to relocate themselves, so we had to pave a new trail through the woods in the back.  Fun times with the boogie.

Aaron and I have been stuck inside for the past couple of days as we battle simultaneous sinus infections, so we decided that we would get outside for a little fun and fresh air.

So we built a snowman.

And then played dress-up with him...er...her.

The Floridian snow-woman!  

(Aaron confessed that this snowman is about as white as he would be in a bathing suit right now.)

And the SEMINOLE snowman!

Doing the warchant, of course.  I think our neighbors on the balcony nearby mighta thought we were a little crazy by now.  Probably just jealous gator fans.

And that was our time playing in the snow!  The rest of our time was spent outside shoveling out our cars.  Not all that exciting (although we do have a snow shovel this year to replace our baking sheet!), so you will note the lack of photos.  Thank goodness for neighbor Mike who likes to play with his four-wheeler and snow-plow attachment on days like these.  Took us about 1/3 the time.

Afterwards, we made our traditional walk to Fairfax Corner for a hearty lunch (this time at Uncle Julios!) after some hard work.  We do this because once we shovel our cars we feel extremely possessive of our parking spots and can't bear the thought of leaving them :) :)

That's all from us.  Hope you're staying warm.  We can't wait for a balmy 40 degree day to grace us with its presence.

And to the kids who knocked our snowman down before we returned from lunch:  I hope you sled through my dog's poop. 

Over & Out.
