Package! Snow!!

They were excited to get a package from Grandpa Paul & Grandma Debbie . . .
fleece sweatshirts and cool scarves!  Thanks for the package!!!
 
Yesterday we got a dusting of snow - got to go to school an hour late . . . the kids were happy to see it but they are so ready for some REAL snow to fall!!!    Here  that only means 2-3" - haha!!!  They talk about going sledding and drinking hot chocolate! 
  
Went to a nearby town the next day for a short trip and didn't expect change in weather - had we known we would have dressed to stay out in the SNOW!!!  This was the most snow we've seen this season - so the kids wanted to play out in it!  They did - but they didn't last as long as they wanted to due to lack of enough gloves/mittens!  Glad we went north because when we got home - not as much snow had fallen - so they were glad for their 1/2 hour out in falling snow!!!  (: 
We'll see what the rest of this season brings!  I don't even feel like winter has arrived - we keep having warm spells - it's even hit 60 degrees - in JANUARY?!?!?   I know lots of others like warmer weather - but I like winter . . . so I hope we don't skip it!!!
