Holy cow -- less than one week after our ice/sleet storm, we got socked with 11 inches of real, actual snow! We couldn't believe it. When we woke up on Saturday, there was two inches on the ground and huge clumps of flakes were still coming down. It didn't stop until after we went to bed that night!
Once there was about 4 inches, we went across the street to our neighbor's backyard, which has a big hill. Little Man didn't want to come, but the girls and MJ and I had a lot of fun. Little Man waited until later in the day, when he convinced Sweet Pea to let him bury her.
The next day the sun came out, and a lot of snow melted. But we still had 8-10 inches in most of the backyard, which stays shady all day. Amber was unhappy with the snow, and would only go outside when required, and only as quickly as absolutely necessary. But with a lot of encouragement, she finally came out and had a few cases of the zoomies in the snow.

This was a snowfall for the ages! Definitely the most snow we've seen since MJ and I moved here in 2008. And I fear the kids may never go back to school!
