It's been another SNOWY week here in Dyersville! We had a wonderful blizzard that came through Tuesday/Wednesday that brought approximately 15 inches of snow and THREE school snow days! (Kelly only had one day of her Catholic Schools Week Celebrations!) We got another 4 inches overnight today as well. We have A LOT of snow right now.......and we had a warm December week that melted a lot too! It has been another snowy winter! (I'M READY FOR SPRING!!!! But.....let's pray that the snow melts gradually so we don't FLOOD again!!!!) We spent 2.5 hours outside today.....as the temperature was upper 30's and it was pretty nice outside! Logan and Lexi (our neighbors) came over to play in the snow with Kelly. (Molly was napping......but came outside when she woke up). The kids had a great time!
It started with building a snowman.....
Lexi, Logan, & Kelly with the snowman they made......with a little help from Daddy!
....and went to making snow castles.....
......to sliding down the big mound of snow!
Kelly sliding!
But.....the big hit of the day was making a snow tunnel!!!!
(Here are Kelly and Lexi starting to dig the tunnel out)
Then they decide the needed "tools"....here they are with ice scrapers and shovels!
They called in reinforcements and Daddy helped!
Kelly going in for her turn to chip away at the tunnel.
Molly woke up and thought they were pretty funny going in the tunnel!
Kelly laying in the tunnel!
Lexi and Molly patting the snow between their gloves.....Molly didn't want to be too close to the snow.....the driveway was safe!
Kelly laying in the completed snow tunnel!
Molly wanted to see the snowman.....but wouldn't walk over to it.....so Daddy helped!
Our two girls.....one who LOVES the snow.....and one who still isn't sure!
