Ok, so it's not the Baltimore/Washington, NYC, Philly section of the country, but we have had our fair share of snow and cold weather here too in central Ohio! The last 3 storms to hit us has produced somewhere in the neighborhood of 31-35 inches of snow. I heard on the news a couple of nights ago this is the 2nd "snowiest" February in recorded history in Ohio. We still have 10 days to go with another storm possibly hitting us Monday or Tuesday.
The kids have had fun in it - I think Jackson could stay out all day if we left him. The most impressive part of all this snow has been the enormous icicles that have formed off houses, buildings, etc. Jackson and I took the missionaries home the other night and stopped on the way home because he was itching to try and find a "big" one. Well, we found one and took it home with us. We were in the Expedition and had to put it long ways into the back to get it home.
The snow blower has come in handy so far this season. I think I would be in a world of hurt if I didn't have it. I am lucky that Jackson is always willing to help out and shovel as well. He is earning his keep and even goes to the neighbor's house and shovels her driveway to be helpful.
We went sledding down a relatively small hill a couple of Saturdays ago. Kids had fun running up and down the hill. Paris was trying to get the hang of it on her small little sled she was trying to ride. Tyler was getting into the fun and flying down the hill pretty good. I think Jackson got a little bored with riding on his stomach so he decided to ride down standing on one of the sleds.
