SNOW!

WE FINALLY GOT SOME SNOW! (and by some snow I mean 8.6 inches at the airport...think we got around 7 inches at our house) Compared to what our friends up north have gotten that's a light dusting but in Columbia it's practically a blizzard! It started snowing yesteday around 4 and stopped some time around midnight (we were asleep by that point!). Last night we went outside after dinner and Franklin was hilarious! It took us a while to convince him to go outside...he wasn't sure why his yard was white! Once we got him outside he explored quite a bit but wasn't super interested...we probably had about 2 inches of snow by that point.

When Emmie got up this morning, I fed her and then bundled up Emmie and gathered up Franklin and out we went to play! Emmie was not very entertained by the snow...she was still recovering from being stuffed into her snow sack (she's pretty sure we were trying to torture her).

Franklin decided that 7 inches of snow was a lot more fun than a measly 2 inches! He sniffed around and plowed through the snow. We went and woke up Paul and he came out and attempted to throw snowballs for Franklin (he'd been pretty entertained by this the night before). The snow was to fluffy in the morning but we went back out after it started to melt and it was perfect for snowballs and snowmen! This evening Franklin kept going back outside and trying to find the snowballs from earlier...he also discovered that the snow was pretty tasty! He's pretty worn out tonight...he went to bed around 8...just couldn't take it anymore!
