Every 26 years or so

...it snows here. The last time we had "measurable" snowfall was in Jan of 1985. I remember it well. It was a lot, for us, thirteen inches if I remember correctly.

So last night, it was time, we were ready. It still hadn't started by bedtime, so I told the kids we'd go to bed early and wake up early to snow.

We got less than an inch, and the consistency wasn't very snowlike. It was more like very cold salt. But that didn't stop my kids from enjoying it. We got up early, threw out some seed for the birds and the kids played for a few moments in the icy stuff. It was a good day.

We usually don't get snow, but we did get a snowfall a few weeks ago that put the kids out of school for a week. It was crazy. I'm not a fan of snow myself, but my daughter loved it. Your kids look happy with what little bit of snow they got :)
