First Snow

On Saturday we had our first snow of the season down in Colorado Springs.  We started getting snow a few weeks ago up in the mountains, but Saturday we got some serious snow down in town.  It was probably about 2 or 3 inches.  The kids were super excited about the snow.  

They couldn't wait to go out and play in it.  I had to go dig out all the winter clothes for the first time this year.  Scott got home from a month long work trip the night before the big snow (he surprised us by coming home a few days early!) so it was an extra fun snow day with daddy there!

Scott and Matthew made a little snow man!  The sun came out and the snow started to melt in the afternoon.  That seems to happen a lot in Colorado Springs.  It was kind of fun to have an early snow day.  But I'm a little sad to really let go of the warm weather.  It will probably be 80 degrees next week.  Who knows?

Oh that looks so cold so early!

You are amazing, I would have had a big hunt for the winter clothes.

I went to check the weather today and it said this and I thought of you guys:

"Winter Coming to Denver
Record highs yesterday and a snowstorm tomorrow? It's going to be a wild week in the Denver area as the winter weather invade"
