We got dumped on in Colorado this week.

(I think it was 10 inches total, within 24 hours.)

*

Yep, lots and lots of snow.*

*



*

*

The weather man told us there was a 90% chance of heavy snow fall.* So I hauled all 3 kids around to buy coats, snow bibs, boots, hats and gloves…….the night before the snow fell.* We seemed kind of desperate as we sprawled out in the snow boot aisle at Target, trying to outfit everyone with the right sized boot.* My four year old girl asked me why I wasn’t buying any boots for me.* I told her my feet were too big for the shoes there.*

*

She looked concerned.*

*

Then I apologized for my genes.* And told her to start praying that her feet to never pass a women’s size 10.*

Because her momma’s size 12 are hard to outfit.

[I should start praying for the baby's feet too. ]

*

*

We had such great weather last weekend.* That’s when I photographed the kiddos in their Mary Poppins costumes.*

*

However, there was no sadness due to this recent snowfall.* The kids had full access to white fluff ALL DAY LONG.*

They were in rosy cheek heaven.



*

*

*

This little guy was so concerned about his buried plastic lawn mower.* Don’t worry…..he dug it out.



*

*

*

And she was very worried about grandma’s herbs.* Whew, the basil were rescued.



*

*

*

I did regret buying a size 2T-5T sized glove for this kid.* (What manufacturer makes a kid glove size with that kind of size difference?!?!!)* Those little suckers slipped off about 73 times.* My husband says I exaggerate sometimes……but 73 times is not exaggerating.* Gahhhh.* I wised up when they went out later in the day and wrapped a rubber band around the glove at the wrist.* It saved my sanity.



*

*

*

I felt sad for those little Fall leaves that never had time to fully change and fall to the ground.*



*

*

*

But watching these little turkeys play in the snow on and off for at least 4 hours that first day……was pretty enjoyable.* (Ask me how I feel about the snow in February.)



*

*

*

And after about an hour and a half of pure icy fun, I made them come in to warm up those red cheeks.* I know, big mean mom.* They weren’t happy about that.* But after throwing around the words”hot chocolate” a few times……….they finally obliged.



*

*

Now, how about you?* Did snowflakes fall from your sky?



*

*

. . . . .

By the way, make sure and upload your Halloween Costumes

to my flickr group here.*

There are so many darling ones in there already.* I will do a little Virtual Costume Parade on Monday or Tuesday (and post a bunch of your costumes here on my blog).*

I can’t wait to see more!!!!!
