Snow Day

We had a really good snowfall two weeks ago. It was the second snow of the season but was the first powdery, heavy fall so it was perfect to play in. Maya claims we've never built a snowman before (even though I'm sure we have at some point in her life) so we built this guy. We didn't make arms for him, but he's still pretty cute.


The dogs LOVE playing in the snow. Often when we let them out of their area (on the west side of the house) they go bolting around the back and up to the other side of the house and then back again. With the snow on the ground they kept on doing that over and over. It so cute to see them enjoy running through the snow.
 I love this picture of Lucy skidding and sending snow spraying as she rounded the corner.

I was expecting maybe an inch of snow, but I think we got about a foot. It was great, except for all of the trees that broke because they all still had so many leaves. My kids LOVE playing in the snow and run around the house, skidding and spraying, too.

Oh, wow - it looks amazing!! I so hope we get some snow this year. I can't believe Maya has never built a snowman with all the snow you get in Utah. I love watching dogs play in snow - so exciting for them xx
