Clark stayed hydrated by eating snow. The drifts were so high that as he walked along he would just scoop it up without even stopping. We stuck him in the back of Adam's truck to play, and I think he ate half the snow in the bed of the truck (with our neighbor's help). Two houses down from us are some small hills that were created by moving dirt during development projects. They are the perfect size for Clark to go sledding. He calls them "The Mountains." Yesterday he sledded there, but today we took advantage of having a hill for a front yard and created our own slaloms. Even Clementine joined in on the fun after her nap. She loved the snow day fun, and the bright white background combined with her snowsuit really make her eyes pop in these pictures though it may be hard to tell in the slideshow. She was so happy, and her blue eyes just glistened.
We plan to make sure Clark gets some play time tomorrow in his igloo fortress while still managing to get back to work and our regular routine since the roads have been cleared now. Let's enjoy the snow while it lasts before it all melts and washes away later this week (hopefully without causing major flooding issues...)!

Since Clark likes the snow so much, I was wondering if you took the opportunity to make snow ice cream?
