Snow! Again!

My parents arrived last Thursday.  They were here to see their grandkids (and us - I hope!) and to escape the cold of Ohio.  Apparently, warmer temperatures are a relative thing, because they brought an awful lot of winter weather with them.

On Sunday night, we learned that Ree and I didn't have preschool or work on Monday.  It was clear and dry when we heard the news.  This seemed strange, even if the radar told a different picture.  However, this is what we woke up to:


We watched the snow throughout the morning, using a soccer ball in the backyard as our guide to determine the snow depth.  We took this a little over halfway through the storm.
 

The snow was supposed to turn to rain around lunchtime, so we took the kids out while it was still coming down like mad.  Ree mostly played on the patio, under the cover.




 Leon was busy cooking, as usual.



 The lens was covered with snow, so it's a bit blurry, but I did manage to capture all three kids together.
Now it's off to work again. Dang.  I was really hoping for a snow week!
