Snow day in vegas...

We were treated to an unexpected snowfall this year. It came a week too early to be a white Christmas, but that did little to spoil the excitement of SNOW in VEGAS! The boys had a great time watching the snow come and go. Donovan and I braved the impending snow storm to run to the grocery store. We were just pulling into the parking lot and when the first snowflakes started. By the time we were done, it was coming down in big fluffy cotton candy flakes. Of course my boys were the only ones in the neighborhood playing in the snow at dinner time. By this time, the snow was really coming down. The boys had scraped the driveways of all the neighbors in order to make snowmen. The innocence of making snow men, turned into dousing each other in snow. At 9:30pm the Clark County School District announced a Snow Day, the first one since the 1970's. As soon as the announcement hit the news, the street was filled with kids. However, this being LAS VEGAS NEVADA, we weren't prepared for the cold weather. Drake's little hands were like Popsicles. Handsicles ....LOL. As much as he wanted to play in the snow, his fingers were like ice. I know, I know....bad mommy. But he was such having so much fun. I brought him in the house to help me bake cookies for the kids and for him that was a fair trade.
