I can't remember there ever being this much snow before thanksgiving, even in Denver. We are going to just have to embrace it and settle in for a snow filled winter. While I seem to see many others posting about how depressing it is and how they want to move away, I find myself actually really liking it (minus those brief 2 minutes from my front door to the car). I love how warm and cozy the house fills (now that the furnace guy came today and turned our heat back on this afternoon) and inspired me to put up some Christmas decorations. Call me crazy but I would take this any day over the rainy dreary winter we had last year!
We all got bundled up and went outside to play in the freshly fallen now this morning.
It wasn't exactly packing so, but perfect for a double sled pull up and down the street. Exercise completed. I might loan out my hefty kids for men participating in a strong men contest. It was wearing to say the least!
I was impressed with how long the boys made it outside with it only being 20 degrees out. We were out for over an hour and I had to take them in with promises that we would come out again later.
If you are wondering, this hit me in the head when I covered the camera to save it.
Powder not perfect for snowmen but great for rolling around and wrestling.
Definitely looking forward to many more days of this, because not only did we have a blast but afterwards they each took 2 1/2hour nap!
how do kids do that???!! Mine would have stayed outside all day in these temps had I agreed
