Fun in the Snow

We've had three pretty decent snow storms here recently, which is nice. Unfortunately, the middle one included a good deal of ice, so we now have a thick layer of snow, covered by a half-inch of ice, with another several inches of snow on top of that. Which makes getting around quite the chore.

However, if you break out big pieces of the ice layer, you can stick them back into the ice so they stand upright, like the bony plates on the back of a stegosaurus. which is pretty neat:

Of course, the real highlight of going out to play in the snow is coming back inside where it's warm, then running around in your snow pants:

It's funny because they make noise when you run. At least, SteelyKid found it tremendously amusing, and that's what really matters.

Here's hoping your snowy weekend was as fun as hers.
