... a snow day!

It was the storm of the decade! People here can't believe that it snowed in March; apparently they don't know that March is the snowiest month in Colorado. We have a grand total of three inches, up to six in the drifts. It's shocking. School was, of course, cancelled. Oh wait - it's Saturday. Well, at least basketball was cancelled anyway. So you know it's serious.

We did lots of fun things today! This morning Rachael and I decorated an apron so she can wear it when she is helping in the kitchen. Then this afternoon we got all decked out and I taught her how to make snow angels. She loved it! We tried a snowman but the snow is just all wrong. It's packed ice underneath and soft powder on the top. Perfect for skiing...

Poor irises! They just started to bloom!



...speaking of skiing, Ryan and I go to talking about how it's great snow, except that there's only a couple of inches. Long story short, he pulled the skis out of the basement and strapped them on. Proof you really can ski in Kentucky!
