The Day After the Blizzard


Yes, there was a blizzard and it was insane. It has been a very long time since we had such a snowfall like this. And I stand corrected, we did get about 16" of snow, not the 6 that I thought we were going to get earlier.

When this is what you see on your dining room window, you know that it is not going to look good outside.

Jack loves the feeling of water on his face. The few times that it has snowed this year, he would just stand and watch as the million snowflakes would fall from the sky, and on his face. Which is why he kept looking out the window, hoping that perhaps one snowflake would go through the window and on his tongue.




Et Voila!! The pictures that I wanted! To show Jack just how much snow fell. and how little he looks compared to the giantness that lies on our sidewalks. He loved it. It was great just to take him down the streets, and hear him giggle on the sled. Then he kept climbing the snow hills and said, I'm climbing the mountain! I knew that it was time to go inside when I saw Jack face down in the snow and asked "What are you doing?"
Jack- "Eating the snow." Snow was hanging from his eyes, mouth, scarf, hat, everywhere. Yeah, time to go inside.
