Surprise Snow
The forecast is calling for a big dumping of snow this week however much to our surprise we woke up last week to about 5-6 inches or unexpected greatness. With a fresh blanket of snow on the ground the kids were able to play in the backyard after school and actually have something to do back there. This weekend was warm and after a family trip to TR to plan for even warmer weather we headed out 'early' on Saturday morning to fish with the neighbor kids. We hit the ice with a crew of eight and pulled in only a single bluegill but plenty more laughs. The kids ran around the fresh ice snow playing soccer and cut the pie and we set up the new Christmas present ice shack. It has sense been returned as it snapped a rod putting it up. All six kids hung out inside of it for about 45 minutes snacking and gossiping at one point Sophia gashed her hand pretty good but we rubbed some snow on she wore my larger sized gloves and then was fine to play cut the pie some more. It didn't seem to hamper her social engagement of a sleep over any. Sunday morning with our belly filled with cinnamon rolls we headed to Webster hill but it was wore down to the dirt so we trucked it over to Triangle and hit the big hills for awhile before Ella had to head off to a birthday pool party. A little domestic errand running and then as the rain picked up we decided it was time to head back outside to build some snow forts and a small snowman army in preparation for the big snow storm and hopefully snow day to come. With the zipper clunking sounds of jackets and snow gear in the dryer it is time to gear up for the week to come.
