The boys were SO EXCITED today that we got our first measureable snow of the winter!! We spent the afternoon swimming at a birthday party, so by the time we got home late this afternoon, there was probably 2-3 inches of white stuff on the ground. The boys took about 30 seconds to go put their snow pants and snow boots on, and out to play in the fresh powder they went! They got their sleds out, and Logan even scooped our front sidewalk! Hey, if he likes snow that much, I'm okay with that, and I'm sure Jeff will never turn down help with the shoveling duties! :)
Last week, Logan's teacher asked students to guess when we would get our first measureable snow and she put their guesses on a calendar. Well, Logan guessed that we would get it on December 3rd, so he was RIGHT! Today, when it started to snow, he said, "I just KNEW it, Mom!" Haha! Both boys have been quite concerned with how in the heck Santa was going to get to our house with no snow for his sleigh! I don't know how long this snow will stay around, but if I know Iowa weather well enough, there will be plenty of snow for Santa, and at least now the boys can worry about one less thing!
