It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

...in March. grrrr.

Last week, kind of out of the blue, we had a storm come in and drop a whopping three inches of snow. It gave us a nice excuse to break out the hot chocolate and have one more chance to play in the snow. If you have to have snow in the Spring, however, it's nice when it's the kind that melts off in the 65 degree weather the next day ;)


Georgia, enjoying the freeezing weather

Ezra, helping daddy build a snowman

Once there was a Snowman, tall, tall, tall!

In the sun he melted, small, small, small!

(Actually, I'm a big liar. This particular snowman didn't slowly melt. He fell over because the snow was so darn wet and heavy. However, in my defense, right after he fell over, they went out front and made a different one. That one really did melt small, small, small.)

Ahhh, you make our weather sound so...fun and pleasent. I was quite irritated that i wasn't wearing capris. Grrr. AND (while I'm at it) I'm pretty disgusted at tomorrow's forecast too. Humph.
Anyway...
Your kids are darling. I love the pictures!! Spence is such a great daddy to take them out. I was super-impressed with the snowman...and then to build two!! Every kids dream.

It looks like you are making lemonade out of lemons...or snowmen out of a spring snow storm. :-)
Cute pictures!

Love the pictures and you do make it sound so fun. I have to add the picture of Georgie looks JUST like you as a little girl. Crazy...reminds me of the one where you're in pink with the birdie on it...

Mack adds you need to update your picture of Miss Scarlett on the side-bar. He says it doesn't represent how cute she is.

Thanks for posting! So as I say, not as I do!!! ;)

I know that was so crazy we also got that heavy snow in Illinois. IT knocked our neighbors big birch tree down on top of our lilac bushes.:(
I love your snowmen!

totally impressed with the giant snowman! I make the snowmen at our house and they never get that big! The kids look like they had a blast!
