Snow days

This week we experienced a snowstorm. The Seattle area accumulated about 8 inches of snow, to my dismay and Sean's delight. Here are some of the things we did while the snow was here:

Sean working hard on a snowman:


The next day, mommy was spoiled and stayed in the warm house while Dad took the kids out to play in the snow. They all look very happy to be outside, except for the snowman.


The aftermath of the ice and snow storms. Poor trees. It was worth it for the amount of fun the kids had though.
