Snowy Days

Do you want to build a snowman?

Given the unusually warm winter temperatures, the children had all given up on the idea of ever getting any snow this winter, but to their surprise, it began to snow this morning.  Even with snowflakes swirling all around us it didn't even seem real and we thought that as fast as they were coming they were going to leave us based on news reports; however, halfway through German school we packed up our stuff and headed home.  Good thing we did because the roads were becoming dangerous rather quickly.  Thankfully, we made it home safely and the children had a blast playing in the snow.
