Snow Day!

Yesterday we took a snow day to head to the Smoky Mountains and play a little. The theory: if it won't snow here, we'll go find it. And we succeeded! We drove up to Newfound Gap and found about 8 inches of fluffy powder prime for playing.

I think this slope was a double-diamond.


That's one big snowball Maddie has.


And this was her throwing said snowball. Yes, I quickly moved camera, which cost more than the child, before taking on too much snow.




Poor Maddie had on so many layers (think Ralphie from "A Christmas Story") that she couldn't bend her legs. She didn't care though.


Do your remember the feeling of just rolling around in the snow?




It wasn't the biggest snowman in the world, but it was the cutest near the parking lot.




Alright, back to work now. We got to play in the snow at least once this winter. That will have to do.
