Hooray for Snow-days!

Good thing they called school off yesterday, we got close to a foot of snow (thundersnow!), with some crazy drifts and a little frozen sleet on top of that... roads were an absolute mess all day! 

When I woke up Thursday morning around 7 it was just starting to flurry, but by ten it looked like this! Kieran was itchin' to get outside and get his fill of snow-fun but there was so much wind, thunder and even lightening we made him wait till after lunch... very weird snow storm.

Gearing up...

Thursday, Kieran didn't venture too far from our front porch, it was still blowing and snowing... but he had plenty to work with in that giant drift!

Battling the snow... he landed some pretty fantastic blows ;)

Playing with his "rescue vehicle" and a few superheros after mommy shoveled a path for our sidewalk.

We were all feeling a little stir-crazy by lunch time on snow-day number two so we ventured out for slices at APP... always good!

"I am a BIG pizza fan!"

Too tired to even chew ;)

Drinking some spilled lemonade off the table- nice ;)

We discovered we had left over whipping cream and decided to make some snow-cream with a splash of coconut extract .. Kieran loved this idea- but then he loves to eat snow straight up too!

It only occurred to me after ingesting a fair amount of the stuff that maybe we shouldn't be eating snow at all- I mean I don't drink rainwater, right? Oh well, I ate a lot of this as a child and turned out okay, I guess...

Kieran loved it and so far... he seems fine...
