The boys walked around and took pictures in the snow Sunday night, but it was dark and the snow was slushy, so they didn’t do much with it. Then Monday morning it was too icy. Finally Monday afternoon they got to go out and “play” in it.
Jeremy says this is a snow alien.
I told him I thought it looked more like a pig. 🙂 The round mouth (from the ring around a juice bottle) looks like he is either singing…or very surprised 😀
Here is another view:
They made another smaller one in the back:
Jeremy (these are all his pictures) titled this one, “Morbo reporting from Earth.” Jesse was very proud of the snow hat he made.
I love this picture of Suzie running in the snow.
Other than that, and being with her boys, I don’t think she liked it much. She especially didn’t like getting hit with a snowball!
I heard Jim up on the roof — I thought maybe he was cleaning piled-up snow off this little section.
(Does this look dangerous to anyone besides me??)
But he was actually doing this:
(Kids, don’t try this at home!!)
All in all it was a fun snow day.
The roads are better: Jim went to work and Jason went to class. Jesse has another snow day off. As far as I know right now the ladies’ meeting is on. I got most of the prep work done for it yesterday. I need to go out today and get gift bags and boxes and such. Though the road looks good, I don’t know how I am going to get out to the car due to my balance issues…I asked the guys to clear a path yesterday, but there is still iced-over slush between the house and the van. I did find we have some rock salt on hand — I think I’ll see if Jeremy will go sprinkle some out there before I try to leave…and maybe escort me to the car. 🙂 Plus when the sun gets to that side of the house, hopefully it will melt away more of it.
I’m off to get things done — hope you have a good day!
Stray Thoughts 
Yes, my first thought when I saw the picture of Jim was “Oh, my, he looks ready to fall!”, then “That gutter could have broken!” As a wife and the mother of three sons, I have come to believe that men and boys must have extra guardian angels! I can find no other explanation for how they live as long as they do! 🙂
Uhhhh, yeahhhhh….that DOES look pretty dangerous to me, Barbara. Hello.
I’m not big on heights anyway. And don’t ask me to explain this but I can climb a ladder UP onto the roof. (It’s been a looooong time since I’ve done that.) BUT it’s the getting back onto the ladder to come down that scares me! *sigh* I’m so thankful that is not something I am required to do very often! *smile*
It’s so neat that your boys played in the snow together!! And yes, I’m with you, on the piggish resemblance that their snow alien had! *smile*
You have GOT to be kidding me! Your husband got UP ON THE ROOF so he could roll snowballs at a snow alien!?!? WoW! He IS a fun guy! LOL!
HA! It’s great to see your “big” boys still playing in the snow!
Love the pictures of the “southern” snow 🙂 ALL of your boys look like they had fun, including the older one. I can’t believe he got on the roof to do that. Scold him for being a dare devil 😉
My first reaction at him on the roof? “Oh My, I hope the next one is not of him laying on the ground with a broken something.” Goodness! What was he doing?
Love the snowmen. Them are some crazy long alien arms on the one! LOL. Very creative.
What neat snow pictures. All we see around here is sunshine. I would welcome a little snow.

I thought it look like a pig too. LOL! Great photos, Barbara!
