Snow Day Part 2...

As I promised, photos from today! When all was said and done, we got about 4 inches of snow at our house. By the late afternoon, the snow that had gathered on the roadways was melted into slushy piles. Bad news when the low temperature tonight is 19 degrees! We might just be "snowed" in again tomorrow if the roadways are icy in the morning... I had grand ideas of taking the boys on their first sled ride today, but that didn't really materialize. Mostly because no one in North Carolina has sleds... but the second reason was because Luke didn't really seem to like snow at all! See the pic below.

Will, Nate and Luke huddled together for warmth... just kidding. By the time we took the boys out to enjoy the snow, the temperature had warmed up to about 36 degrees.

Will and Nate enjoying our first real NC winter weather... Will really seemed to enjoy the breeze on his face. I think he was a little taken aback at first by the cold, but he quickly got used to it.


This was as close to the snow as Luke was willing to go. Every time I tried to put him down, he cried and wanted "up." He enjoyed crawling around on the driveway, though, and was the first to head to the front door... as if to indicate "play time is over!"


Otis is truly a snow dog. He did laps around our yard every time we went outside! He probably got more exercise today than he has in a while, which is why right now, he is a completely useless, snoring, dreaming lump on the floor!
