We ended up getting 6-8 inches through the course of Tuesday night through yesterday morning. It was the wet, heavy stuff which makes plowing & shoveling it even more fun!
When Cory & the boys got home from work/daycare yesterday, Cory got them all bundled up in their jackets, snow pants, boots, hats & mittens and went outside to enjoy the snow & mild weather. They enjoyed another ride around the yard in their sled. Since the snow was so deep (& really wet from melting all day), Cory only made one trip around the yard for the boys in their sled & then decided a 4-wheeler ride would be more appropriate.
When I got home from work shortly after, they were all three piled on the 4-wheeler, with Bailey following close behind of course, riding around the yard & over visiting the neighbors. The boys hopped off the 4-wheeler, grabbed their shovels and helped me shovel out behind the garage while Cory plowed the drive-way with the 4-wheeler. The boys had a blast helping me, using their shovels of course. They also discovered that fresh snow tasted cold on their lips. Colton started it out by grabbing a handful of snow off of the desk & trying to eat it – his face was priceless when he realized how cold it was – but tried it again. As soon as Wyatt saw him doing this – he decided he needed to get on the action too. But instead of grabbing a handful, he bent over & plopped his face into a pile of snow with his tongue hanging out. I almost died laughing when I watched him first do this. He thought it was so funny & tried it a few more times before I huddled them up to go inside for dinner.
I unfortunately didn’t get any pictures of the fun we had last night – I was too busy wrangling kiddos, helping them up when they slipped & couldn’t get up, shoveling & just enjoy our time together.
