Dear Mother Nature slideshow

you are such a tease. And, you really need to be a woman and take control - please yank the reins away from Father Winter. I do not appreciate the 6 inches of snow that we received yesterday.

ALL. DAY. YESTERDAY.


(pic taken around12:30pm on Wed ... we ended up with 3 more inches on top of this.)

I'd still be irritated if it weren't for the fact that I have pretty great kids who know how to take lemons and turn them into lemonade. Thanks to them we got outside and made the best of all this snow.

The result of 1 1/2 hours of playing in the snow? A snowball fight, a Snowbunny, snow angels, and a killer photo op with the barn.



And what did I learn about my kids? They like to eat snow. Seriously, in 1/2 the pics one of them is eating snow. Berlin even started gnawing on the snowbunny's shoulder. They are hilarious - oh how I love them.

but alas

Honestly, I'm so glad that you guys made the best of it. I probably would have thrown myself in a corner and curled up and just cried if it had snowed on us. I was griping about the rain we had...in the middle of the night the other night...hoping that it would be done before we woke up so the boys and I could still go outside and play. I admit, I am spoiled. I love the pictures, though...the snow bunny is the cutest. Such creativity!
