It's beginnning...

Yesterday I woke up to look outside and see this...

So I cancelled my errands because it was way too slippery and still really snowing and I went home and cleaned, and made cards, and even did some Christmas shopping online. All inside in the warm house.


When I picked Jacob up from school he was bursting with excitement to get home and shovel the driveway and chip the ice. Yes, you read that right. My son spends hours outside on my steep driveway shoveling and chipping away. It all started here.
When I got home he spent two hours outside working with small amounts of play. When we went to his parent conference at school it was so icey I still could not get up the driveway so he hopped outside of the car and began chipping more ice away.



I guess winter arrived with a bang. Last week we were at the pumpkin patch and it was too warm for sweaters.
