Spring Snow

After "snowmageddon" in 2010, there really hasn't been much snow in Maryland.  A dusting here or there and major storms forecasted, but no results.  Until March 25th.  We woke up to about 3 inches of snow and it was still falling at a steady rate.  The less hype and warnings, the more snow. 

Since it might be another 2 years before we see major snow again, Daddy "worked from home" so he could go sledding with us.  The forecast indicated the snow would change to rain, so we ate breakfast, snow suited up, and headed over to a less treacherous hill at our neighbor's house.

Even though I no longer teach, I still check for school closings to see if my friend, Lisa, will be off for the day.  I enjoy her company and our daughters get excited about the idea of playing together.  (they act shy around each other, don't share, have tantrums when one takes the other's baby doll.... BUT they ask for "Ev" or "Emie" all the time). 


LOL.  Love these two girls!

 The hill near Lisa's house was perfect for the girls.  It levels off at the bottom so we didn't have to worry about the girls flying into the woods. 

While we played outside, a sick Braylen hung out in the house

Like most play dates, the girls started out shy, had fits (about wearing gloves), played together with a ball for 2 minutes, then had enough after 45 minutes.  By then we were all damp and tired of fighting with the girls to wear gloves.  The snow changed on and off to rain the rest of the morning and afternoon, so I am glad we had our 45 minutes of fun!  More pictures of our spring snow day.
