serious snow

UPDATE: it has snowed so much our little snowman is covered up to his HEAD, and the gnome has snow over his booty...AND he is under the eaves!
this am, like every monday, we got up and started getting ready...clif went downstairs to let the dogs out, and i heard, "holy cow!! somer, you might want to look outside."

i did. and THIS is what i saw! huh?! did i miss the weather? i guess i DID miss something...

and so did clif for that matter, cause we had NO clue. oh well...

at least we were warm and dry inside. or at least for the moment....

SOME people were ready to explore the white wonderland.

and make snowmen...

and chase their siblings...

and just giggle and have fun!!

we played outside for a good hour, but it has snowed so much since ten this morning that ALL of our footprints are completely covered, and even though clif cleared the entire driveway it is covered, too! in fact this family of southerners is TOTALLY amazed at how MUCH snow we are getting...it's hard to tell who is the most impressed the grownups or the kids!! :)
