The first snow on Christmas Day was Snowmageddon. We got about 4-5 inches and the boys sledded for the first time in the park.
The second snow was Snowpacolypse. Or "Snow Pig Lips" according to the boys. We were out of school for ELEVEN DAYS. We had almost a foot of snow in some places.
This third snow was melted by noon so there's no cute nickname. Or pictures. Because we are all officially SICK of snow. The boys don't even get excited anymore when it starts up again and school closes, something unheard of this far south of the Mason Dixon line. They have no idea how rare this is.
I'm getting anxious for spring - and gardening, and farmer's markets, and tillers, and fresh cut grass. I heard a story on The Splendid Table about urban chicken coops and am contemplating having a few chickens in the yard so we can have some fresh eggs.
But I think that's just the snow talking.

Amazing this winter season, helps us appreciate the spring and summer more!!!! Also gives us some chilling memories to call up during the 100 degree days. I could probably score you some real farm eggs from a co-worker at work, will find out more next week! Love seeing the boys (all 3) and their mama!!!! (plus Soph)
Good thing you got video, because if the next few years are "normal," we'll forget what the snow was like! [btw, I'm LOVING Finn's mohawk 'boggin]
