Don't let our location fool you... Albuquerque gets more snow each winter than I remember getting each winter growing up in Lake Oswego, on average. But this year, because of good ol' El Nino we are getting a bit more snow than usual. Not that my kids have minded.
We have already had several small dustings of snow. Two weeks ago we had had a good amount here at our house, but when we drove down off of our hill we discovered it hadn't snowed at all in the rest of the city. That was really weird. Then a few days after that we had another good snow that did get the entire city.
A few days before this picture was taken the boys spent time playing outside, but Kate slept through it all. Thankfully we got another storm and she got the chance to play then So this was her first snow day!
She loved it. Her and Josh went out to enjoy the white stuff. Eric is too old and too mature, at 10. At least that is what he said. He must have snowed out... his loss!
They built two snowmen, one each. Of course Kate was lucky enough to have an awesome big brother to help her. This is their Albuquerque snowmen, complete with the rocks and all.
Happy winter to you all.
Cute aren't they? They had so much fun playing outside today. I had to drag them inside!
