Snow!

We had quite a snowstorm last Thursday and we are awaiting another big one tomorrow evening.  I have never seen so much snow in Kansas City before.  When you are inside looking at it you think... I don't want to get out in that (inner old person), but once you are out there and picking up snow and looking at it and walking through it your inner child comes out.  When I lived in Miami I missed seeing seasons and that even includes snow for me.  I really do love it and how it glitters in the sunshine and how it is so beautiful.  Here are some pictures of our recent snowstorm.

Ben worked from home on these days, but he saw the neighbors out shoveling their drives and he couldn't handle watching... so he helped and then they helped each other.  Here they are chatting.

We measured and it was 11 inches at our house.

Ben's concoction.  He gave away all of his shoes to a homeless shelter, so he has two pair of socks, a plastic bag and his sandals on.  :)  He said it worked just fine.

We filled spray bottles with water tinted with food coloring.  They enjoyed "decorating" the snow.
