lack-luster snow fun

 The lack of snow this year is totally getting on my nerves. I know some people are rejoicing, but I love the 5-6 feet of snow we usually have at our house in the winter. So do the kids.

This year there have been no snow forts, no sledding, no red-nosed children stripping off their snow clothes and cuddling in a blanket with hot chocolate. Last week we finally had just enough snow to play in and for 2 days that's all the kids did. Sure, you could still see the grass poking through on the hill, but that didn't stop them from climbing up and rollling down. They even explored "the woods" at the top of the hill.

Now, the snow on the hill is nearly gone and I don't know if they'll get another chance! I sure hope they do. Maybe in May.....
