Snow in October

This morning, October 12, I was awakened early (thanks Alex) and went to the kitchen to get a drink. I saw something on the back porch and decided to see what it was. I was totally speechless when I saw 7 inches of snow!!!! I decided to go tell Alex, since he was already awake. Soon the boys came upstairs and were equally excited. Once Liv woke up and Alex told her, she ran in to tell Brandon (it is now all of 6:30) "Daddy, Daddy, guess what day it is? I looked outside and it is wintertime!"
After seeing their excitement and joy over snow, I am trying to remember what it felt like to be a kid, and see the fun in little things! Maybe we'll have a mellow, no stress day. We can all be kids!!

Yes... that is our garden. I was not expecting this snow!!!

The kids thought this was a snowman. It is just our trike, left out in the weather. Who did they think had built a snowman at 6am?
