Sunday Snow

Our first barely measureable snow of the year. The Farmers ventured outside to play provided that their Sunday clothes were laid out, socks and belts included, so we wouldn’t be frantic getting ready for church.
D.J. went right to making snowballs and Devin happen to be the first with an official throw. Of course a war began and nobody was safe.

Maddy was an angel – at least for a moment.

Don’t let that sweet face fool you, she promptly tossed one at me (“Not when I have the camera!”) and then nailed poor Spike as he cowered at the door.

D.J. came to our defense. “Go get her, Dude!”

Devin had no loyalties, though he did take it easy on his younger siblings because experience has taught him that Mom and Dad get testy if he rails against either one.

They spent about an hour running around in the snow and when the time came for hot showers, there was no need for me to hassle them. Surprisingly enough, things went smoothly for a Sunday morning.
More snow is expected to fall throughout the week as high temperatures dip into the twenties, setting the perfect mood for a real white Christmas.
