Snow much Fun!

Snow in Charlotte usually means that the whole city shuts down, this is due to the fact that we are completely unequipped for this sort of thing. No one has snow tires and the Dept. of Transportation keeps only about a gallon of salt on hand for the roads. So, we stay home and play, which suits us Dirks just fine.While Maggie was busy making snow angels, Henry saw to the brushing of snow off the car "duty".
Sledding on our recycle bin lid.
We learned that going on your tum tum, though it seems like a good idea....
is not such a good idea due to possible face planting.
All bundled up.
After all the excitement on the hill we opted for a nice leisurely "sleigh" ride through the hood. And, the kids feasted on snow as we went.

Looks like you had fun! We have snow here, but the cold just isn't as fun since you can't come enjoy it with us!
