Snow in April

When David came home from work yesterday, it was raining. It had been raining most of the day. We spent the evening doing Justin's scouts and David played wii with Justin, Ben, and Adam, while I put Elijah to bed and watched a movie with Scott. At 9:30, David realized the time and the boys came upstairs. Scott had fallen asleep in my bed. As we put the boys to bed, Adam looked out his bedroom window to see a winter-wonderland. It had snowed 6 inches in the 3-4 short hours since we last looked outside. I spent 2 hours this morning shoveling heavy, sticky snow off the driveway and sidewalks. Since we are on a corner, we are responsible for the sidewalk all the way around our property. The snowplow had come and blocked in our driveway, and since we don't have park strips, the snowplow throws it partially up on the sidewalk, which makes shoveling even harder. But I am done and ready to start the day. The boys are digging out their snowsuits that we put away over a month ago and are excited to build snowmen and snow puppies. HAPPY SPRING everyone, LOL.
