The winteriest Winter

This winter we got more snow in one storm than we've gotten the entire time we have lived in PA.
It was nice to have some snow to go with the chill, but by the end of the 4th or 5th big storm I was ready to see the mountains of snow melt and welcome spring with open arms. Here are a bunch of pictures from different days of snow playing. Oh and the oh so famous Nate and Liam video just in case you haven't seen it yet. Sure to make you laugh, cry, pee your pants...

These are from the first storm we had. They cancelled most everything so the neighbors were out and we did it all. REAL sno cones, painting the snow (not the boy way,) I filled up bottles with water and food coloring and let the kids go to town. Nate got the job of building Liam a snow fort. This was not a light snow, and he kept getting the, "are you done yet?" response from Liam every five seconds. But really not a bad fort.




I've decided sledding is not as much fun as I remember it being. Wait, I remember why it was fun.
Notice that the snow is almost up to Nate's knees. It was really deep! And it was only going to get deeper...


Nothing like a kool aid sno cone to hit the spot!
Not sure where my neighbor is going exactly? Or if he noticed that there is a 3 foot block of snow on the top of his car? Just hope the person behind him notices. I think it's against the law in PA to drive with snow on top of cars now. Can't imagine why they made that law?

Working on his name. Just happy it's with green and not yellow.

Just right for a little Liam to fit inside.

Once they were chilled to the bone, it was inside for play. We made a fort out of the couch and ottoman, popped some popcorn and let the boys limbs defrost.


They were happy little campers!





There is not much that tires Owen, but all this snow playing did the trick!
