Second Snow


Early Sunday morning it started snowing for the second time here. We saw flurries for most of Sunday that didn't amount to much, then it stopped for most of Monday. Monday night is when the real snow came. We woke up this morning to about 1.5 inches of snow on the ground. By the time the snow stopped on Tuesday we had about 4 inches. Katie and I both love snow and weren't willing to pass up this opportunity so after school and work were all done for the day we threw on a few layers of clothes and headed outside. First on the agenda was a snowman. It didn't take long to figure out that the snow was too powdery to amass a snowman of a decent size. We built him as high as we could, then got bored and moved on to snow angels. Time flies when you're laying in the snow and it was dark before we knew it. We headed inside and cleaned up for a dinner at Burger King and an evening walking around Wal Mart.

Digging out the car to drive Katie to work
Wish that were our house
There's our house!
I'm disappointed that our snowman has turned out like E.T.
His looks don't seem to bother Katie
They're so cute!
This seemed like an interesting picture at the time...
Suiting up for the Appalachian adventure
Right at this point a snow angel doesn't seem like such a good idea

Tuesday I finished my largest project yet which was also my last big assignment before thanksgiving break. With that out of the way I'm almost done for the week. I wish I could say thanksgiving week was going to be a vacation but for the most part it isn't. Katie and I decided to take the days off school and get a few extra hours at work in the beginning of the week. At least we have Thursday off and will be spending all day with family and friends.

  2. I should send Paul over to play in your snow! He really liked the little dusting we had over here.

    You all have so much fun in the snow! Are you sure you're adults and in college? Is that really a pre-school over there, and Dale is just fooling us by saying you're in Bible College?

  3. I think we inspired some of our neighbors to be more child-like. They saw us playing in the snow and looked really jealous.

    There's a time for work, a time for school and a time to flop around in frozen precipitation.
