Snow Day II: White Powder

Crawling thru 18-24 inches of snow seems daunting


Cohen says:

It's common knowledge that sequels are generally over-hyped and less successful than their original counterparts, however today's 2nd straight Snow Day joined "The Godfather II" in the pantheon of untouchable 2nd acts. We had more than double the amount of snow from the day before, Callie was feeling better, and my cousin Brooklynn came to play too. Lookout Ferris Bueller, there is a new epic "day-off" on the block (too many cultural references? I told that to my dad, but he insisted).


Her theory was "Taste it before I play in it"


Ever tried to swim in snow?


And what Cohen does, Callie does too


Snow beard!


What is there really to say about a snow day? It involves bundling up, the usual array of sledding, snowballs, snow angels, and general snow fun, trying to warm up quickly, and repeating the process.

Of course, I like to add a little extra element of fun, and undress myself WHILE mommy and daddy are dressing me. Think my gloves are on? Not anymore! Jacket zipped? Are you sure? I crack myself up.


One of the few times I slid off the deck, rather than jump


Well that's just goofy

Nothing weird here - just waist deep snow...


Who knows how long this snow will last, but I'm sure we've got at least one more day of the good stuff with these temperatures, so I plan to get in as much time with it as I can. Then again, tonight at Costco I tried to convince mommy and daddy that we needed a slip n' slide, squirt gun combo pack. It's almost summer!


Daddy! You're hilarious! Seriously, so funny!


Brooklynn, being very cautious with her footing


Do I look like a Snow Monster yet?


And what Brooklynn does....


wait for it....


Cohen does!
