Let it snow!

Woke up this morning to a skiff of snow outside.

As we left for work/school we were full of excitement about the snowmen and the snow balls and the forts that lay ahead of us....not today,just a skiff last night, soon.

Nathan was loving the foot prints he was making and the sound of wet snow squishing under his feet, being the first to leave his foot print.

I love the silence of the morning that fresh fallen snow brings.

Then we drive to work.
I will call it a crawl to work. The cars and trucks in the ditch, the cars and trucks on the side of the road with missing pieces of fenders and shattered bumpers. We actually saw a truck seemingly fly off the bridge deck into the ditch finally coming to rest partially on a guard rail after hitting the van that had just minutes before this slid down the same path. Question...if this happened to you, would you get out of your vehicle to "check for damage"?
I couldn't watch anymore as we crawled by. I didn't want to see the next 'driving way to fast for the road conditions' vehicle making a sandwich.

Slow down everyone...just slow down.

The first snow fall, way more fun when you are in elementary school.

Drive safe.
