the first real snowstorm of the year

....started in the kitchen...

making its way to the livingroom...

with the help of  a few sparkly little lights

`

the snow plows won't be here till spring to clear up its aftermath...

being "snowed in" isn't such a bad deal after all!

where's the hot cocoa and whipped cream?

its been a stinky week

around here.

(in more ways than one)

thankfully....when life gives these kids lemons...
they make lemonade.

when the "blizzard of 2011" is mearly a freezing rain storm....
and leaves massive sheets of ice on their best sledding hill...

they do this...

and build these with the frozen crust...

and tunnel underneath it to make these...

pretty cool, huh?


what do you do, when life gives you lemons?
