The Snow is Coming....

In anticipation of our first snowfall, the boys helped John put out the "snow sticks." Now that we have survived four Minnesota winters, this is becoming a little more routine. Even the boys know what they are doing when we put out the sticks. They ran to get their toolbox and goggles when John asked for their help. Thankfully, the snow was short-lived and we only got about two inches or so. The boys were actually disappointed when the small hill on the side of our house no longer had enough snow for sledding. Luke was so disappointed, but we assured him there will be more snow soon. Lots more snow! It still takes us about 10 minutes to dress each of the boys in their snow gear and about 5 minutes for one of them to decide they are cold, have to potty, or just plain don't want to be out there for whatever reason. Have a very happy Thanksgiving!
