Winter Wonderland

So the snow has more than just arrived, it has attacked. It started snowing Fri afternoon (John got through his last exam just in time) and basically didn't stop until last night. We ended up with more than a foot and 3 days of being snowed in. The sun is shining this morning and I am excited for life to move along. There was certainly some fun to be had while snowed in though.

All set to go play.
The snow was pure fluff, really made for snowboarding.
Making a snow angel, can you see the contentment on his face? Abby on the other hand was not so keen.

Lucky for me Abby only lasted a few minutes. Aiden was out as long and as often as one of us were willing to stay out. The next day John and Aiden headed out again, this time for almost two and a half hours.

At one point I looked out the window and this is what I saw.Apparently John introduced Aiden to eating snow and instructed him to only eat the fresh snow and that he shouldn't eat it the next day. He certainly stayed hydrated out there.

They were soon joined by a new friend (a neighbor boy) and got to work on a snow cave or igloo as Aiden preferred to call it. Luckily the snow was much more moist and they built one large enough to get all three of them in comfortably.
