The first accumulation of snow we've had in years waited until March to arrive this season. It snowed heavily overnight and by morning we had about 8 inches of beautiful white powder. Jim stayed home from work and took Ellie sledding at the neighborhood elementary school that morning. Unfortunately once the snow stopped, strong winds came and the temperatures were close to single digits with the wind chill. So they didn't have too many runs down the hill before Ellie was ready to come home for hot cocoa. After nap time, Ellie was ready to brave the cold again, but this time just to play in the backyard. We got Aidan all bundled up too and had a family play-date. But again, the cold temperatures had Ellie ready to come inside (for MORE hot cocoa) after making just a few snow angels. You can see more photos from our snow day (and other recent pics) in our March 2009 album.
