Snow Day


We woke up this morning to snow on the ground. Actually, the snow covered everything. It continued to snow all day long. So much for it being spring.

Caleb's reaction to the snow was to say "Off". He apparently thought that we should brush the snow off of the entire state of Colorado. Looking out the window, he pointed and said "Off". When I took him outside to play in the snow, he kept saying "Off" and attempted to brush the snow off the deck himself.

Campbell's first words about the snow were "Snow in March!" She just could not believe that there would be snow in March. She so looked forward to seeing the snow in Colorado. Apparently though, she didn't think it should snow in March.

It was a bit shocking. I mean it has been in the upper 60's since we arrived here 4 weeks ago and suddenly today we have 7 inches of snow on the ground. It was beautiful though. The white snow contrasted against the new green leaf buds, quite lovely. We will be glad to see the 60's return on Saturday, though!
