Not the Worst Snow Storm We Have Seen

Despite trying to get ready for Halloween yesterday, there was the looming snow storm on the horizon. J and I got out the decorations, but didn’t put them outside for fear they would be buried or blown away in the strong winds.

As the day wore on, I started to hope that perhaps the storm would pass us by. But by 6pm the snow started to fall. J really wanted to go out and play in it, so he bundled up in his new snowsuit and boots and headed out. He got in a good half hour before it got just a little too dark for his liking. By 4:30 am he was up and ready to go.

The walk to school was long but good and the happiness that lingered all day long when he played outside for an hour after school and another hour and a half after swimming was well worth an early winter storm. That and knowing that the hot day they had in Regina today is going to hit us on Friday. Which means all this snow will be gone and we can start all over again in December, late December please.

    I know I said it last year, but truly, I can’t even imagine having to deal with snow on a regular basis. I think I’d like it for a bit but then wish it would warm up some. Glad y’all had a great day!

    I am so looking forward to a nice balmy Halloween. I can wait for Christmas for the snow.

    It was nasty here. Really nasty. And I’m only an hour away but I guess just being that much further north adds to it.
    Nathan played in it too. KIDS!

    And 3 days without Hyrdo was not fun either.

    Hugs

    CRAZY! It was 19 here yesterday (as you know) and almost as nice today too.

    Our time will come, it always does 😉
