Anyway. Around these parts when there is a bit of snow everyone is surprised - usually it is just sleet and insta-ice on the roads. I’ve been in this weather, tried to stop, and the only reason why the car ahead of us didn’t get hit was…. they couldn’t stop either. Everyone just kinda slid for a while and came to a nice gentle sideways stop. Kinda nice when the boss says “if you see snow or anything close to snow, work from home - nobody even try to come in, even if the systems all go down, until this clears”.
Low and behold - we had snow. I stepped outside and couldn’t help but notice some tracks in the snow.
This, of course, attracted attention and somebody couldn’t help but try to toss a few (small) snowballs at each other. I think Saturday won by virtue of Not Being There until the other two were done.
And why is it that the little ones are always the ones that pretend to not mind the snow the most? Caught in the Snow Angel attempt…
Turns out Makenzie makes a better Snow Butterfly. An awesome butterfly, I say.
Then came the ” I’m cold… ” and the ” I didn’t even bring socks, can I borrow yours?” talk. Hmmm…. time to go inside.
Much better. And they aren’t alone either:
I think they had fun. But, it was a work day for me. So I did have to get something done. I would have let the monsters watch me work longer, but they had odd ideas about ‘helping’.
