baby, its cold outside!

We finally got a big snow, complete with a layer of ice on top. The older kids spent about 5 hrs outside today, playing on the huge mountains that the plows made in our neighborhood. They are still in awe of winter, having known only summer and "fall-ish" in San Antonio. Carrie didn't go out today. She likes the snow when its powdery and can be thrown on her brothers. So she stayed safely inside fighting with her best friend Erin most of the day, which is a favorite past time anyway. And Liam isn't ready for snow yet. He's still trying to figure out why he ever has to leave the house.

Its hard to tell since I didn't get enough background, but the kids are actually lying on the ground. Even though the snow was about 4-6 inches deep, the ice kept them on top of it the whole time.
Henry is our resident "Superstar!". I think Warren is pretty embarrassed by his brother most of the time.

Ok Jackie -- happy now???
