All this week, we heard of the "Surprise February Storm" that was going to come in like gangbusters Wednesday evening...probably sometime between 4-6 p.m. It was still sunny outside at 5:15 p.m. When I went to bed last night, I was pretty sure it wasn't going to snow because nothing had stuck on the ground (though it did look icy). 
But, when we looked out the window this morning...
It was a winter PLAYLAND! So, Caitlin and Codes woke up their Dad at 8 a.m., and he begrudgingly got out of bed to go play in the snow with them. (What a good Dad, eh?)
Cody, our little ice eater, munched happily on new fallen snow. We only let him eat the stuff in the front yard where there are no doggy land mines. 
Caitlin was spending time trying to find sticky enough snow to make snowballs. 
They both were having fun hanging out in the front yard for a change.
They were able to make some snowballs and toss a few to Casey. She liked eating the snow just as much as Cody. 
Casey also loved romping around in this crazy white stuff. 
Brian, big and strong man that he is, was able to make this 12 inch high snow man. 
Here's Caitlin, inside where it's safe (from snowballs) and warm. We were providing some targets on the window from the inside. I think Codes and Daddo were aiming at the face in between the stuffed animals! heh, hehAt least we got SOME use out of the snow pants we bought at garage sales and clearance racks!
