Snow 2010, part 2

OK, so Friday night's this:
turned into Saturday's this:
We wound up with 3 1/4" in our back yard. Not too shabby (although considering Dallas got 12.5" I still think we got shim-shawed). The girls and I spent yesterday running inside and out- tracking muddy snow all over the floor. Brett was strapped to his chair in a post-surgery drug-induced state of "bummer- the only real snow we'll get this year and it's not worth the risk of me going outside and slipping, falling, and landing on this shoulder". Poor guy. He'll get his own post soon. Until then, here are some pictures from yesterday.
Maggie loves the snow- she has grand delusions of some snow-wolf ancestor 800 years ago.
We built a snow-mini. It was good snowman building snow but, let's be honest, that's Brett's department and my hands kept getting cold. I'm from Texas, I don't have gloves!
The sledding actually wasn't as good as the last time it snowed (more ice and less sun then). Our front yard was the gathering point for a good chunk of neighbors. Alison and Clay pushed, Phil caught (ie- kept them from tumbling into the already snow-less street) and I tried to take pictures. It doesn't matter that the "run" was maybe 20 feet long, they had fun.
All right- so now Christmas is over, New Year's is past and it has snowed twice. I'm done with winter. Bring on the heat!
