Snow in Arkansas?!?!
We are working on day 3 of being "snowed in". On day one we really enjoyed watching the snow fall. It was fun for the kids to watch it fall and anticipate how much we would actually get since mostly they have just seen a light dusting on the ground. We woke up Monday morning and got our snow gear on and went outside to make a snow man. Emily decided very quickly that she did not like to be cold, so I brought her in and got her down for a nap. After she was down, I brought the baby monitor back out and we worked on finishing up the snowman. We ended up with one small snowman. It was the size of Shelby. She decorated it up to look like her. Then we had a "Mommy" snowman. It was a little taller than the real mommy - me! Lastly we were going to make a "Daddy" snowman, but he toppled down as he was being stacked. Since he was the last snowman, we were too tired to bother with reassembling him. So, he stayed toppled on the ground. The snow continued to come down in what looked like hand fulls at times. I'd never seen so much snow fall at once. We ended up with 8.5". I've lived in central Arkansas most of my life and we just don't get that kind of snow here. It was fun to watch fall and nice to play with the kids, but I gotta tell ya, I'm ready to say bye-bye to the snow!

Snow is so much better when you can enjoy it like you've been doing. I only enjoy seeing it go away these days!
I don't miss the snow but for kids it's great to play outside! Much better than tv or games... :)

I wouldn't want to live in snow country. Too confining for me. Small doses is all I can tolerate so I understand your wanting it to go away.
I loved the video. He took a pretty good fall there. How fun.
Have a terrific day and stay warm. Big hug. :)
