What an awesome snowy day

Well we finally got that good (and much needed) snow storm of the year. While Keaghan's school stayed open, Our office closed at 2:30 ish on Friday. Well it continued to snow/rain all night and pretty much all day today.
We decided to take advantage of the 8-10 inches we got and went sleding by the drainage thingy a couple of houses behind us. It is a really small hill which was good for the kids. One thing we did come to terms with was that none of our kids are remotely equiped for snowy weather.





Keaghan had to wear a snow suit that is a 4T. She wears a 6-7 bottom and 7-8 or 10-12 top. Nice. You'll notice her red soccer socks.













Oh wait... Gavin had to wear a size 2 snow suit.










Kaitlynn, when we could stop her from running around in her underwear was the only one that had a suit that fit.






Next you'll see Tim totaly decked out












30 minutes after we started getting everyone dressed we made it out of the house. We had to pack down the snow with a couple of trial runs.











Next came the real "thrills"
Keaghan


Kaitlynn


Gavin
Next we made a snowman.



























Once we'd had enough, we went inside to warm up and have some hot chocolate. Keep in mind this is the first time Gavin and Kaitlynn have had hot cocoa.










Classy huh?
