Mother Nature decided to wait until a week before spring before dumping all this beautiful snow on us.

The kids couldn’t have been more excited!

We haven’t had a good snow day all winter!

We quickly finished our homework and as soon as Adam got home from work, we headed out to the nearby sledding hill.

Just walking over to the hill is fun for all!

Holding hands when crossing the street.

The kids managed to do every configuration of sledding you can think of with the various sleds we brought.

I loved to watch them roll around with reckless abandon, without any worry where the snow might touch them.

It was such a wonderful childhood moment to watch. Pure joy. And one I never experienced as a kid growing up in Florida.

Afterwards we had hot chocolate, ordered a pizza, went to bed late and slept well.

More snow fell today….
