Snowpocalypse 2011

Well Chicago finally got some major snowfall, and though I think the TV stations are referring to it as Blizzard 2011, I like the more dramatic "Snowpocalypse" that is going around on the Interwebs! We got about 20 inches so far, but with the blowing wind, some of it was taller than Josh!

 I'm only 5 feet tall but you can see it was past my knees!

 Having some fun in the snow.

 Josh even got in on the fun. 

Enjoying some homemade hot chocolate afterwards.

SNOW!

We welcomed the first snowfall of 2010/2011 appropriately. Snowball fight,

snow angels,

and basketball of course.

Josh is using a lot more words and doesn't know that you don't normally play basetball in the snow! He asked for ball so we had to bring the hoop out. All in all we only spent about 15 minutes outside. Followed of course by some hot chocolate.

December Snow

Lots of snow fall in December
