SNOW, SNOW, SNOW

We decided to take a spontaneous trip to Flag for snow. Woke up, threw our stuff in a suitcase and left. Rained/snowed on us all the way there & all the way home (which made driving very slow, especially home because the highway was snow covered, plows trying to keep up) and almost the entire time we were there. But there was a little break Monday morning in the snow coming down so we headed out to go play. Unfortunatly every store was sold out of "snow gear" and due to growing kids we had to piece together outfits, Bronson's outfit totally cracked me up!! He had a good coat & snow bibs, but snow boots were too small, and there were none to be found, not even irrigation boots which had worked in the past. So we settled for cowboy boots that were 4 sizes too big. Brookyln ended up wearing jeans & irrigation boots that were about 3 sizes too big. Oh well, they had fun and for the most part stayed warm. Good thing we went to play when we did because the next storm came in and was COLD with heavier snow and WIND!!! Burrrr! But when it was still it was so beautiful and serene with thigh deep wonderful, fresh powder. We saw several cars completely covered over in the driveway, people shoveling sidewalks and pathways, I do have to say... I love to visit the snow but I am so thankful I do not live in it!
