Snow

I guess you could say I'm both grateful and ungrateful for snow today. Grateful because the kids and I had a lot of fun playing in the snow this morning and building a 'snowman head', as Kade called it. The snow was pretty fluffy so Kade had the idea to just make a head like the snowman was peeking his head out of a hole in the ground. It was creative. The craziest part was when he pulled two round chocolates and a shriveled up carrot out of his coat pocket. I had no idea where they came from! Brad later told me that he had helped Kade get those the last time he played in the snow with him a few weeks ago. I'm pretty sure when Kade went back inside, he took the chocolates and the shriveled up carrot and put it back in his coat pocket for the next time we build a snowman. He makes me laugh!
We also played freeze tag and Simon Says. Kade is really good at playing Simon Says! He legitimately tricked me two times! I was impressed.
I was ungrateful for the snow because the crazy amount of snow my parents received on Christmas Eve caused 9 of their trees in their backyard to fall over and be uprooted. So half of the day today my dad, Brad, Danny and I cut the trees down and made a huge pile of debris. We're all feeling pretty sore and tired now. It's sad to see the yard without those trees now, but I'm grateful we were here to help them get it somewhat taken care of. And my Mom was really sweet and bought us all In-N-Out burger after we had finished! So it really wasn't too bad of a day :)
