First Snowfall of the Winter
So we actually missed the first snowfall in Ohio (in November) this year while we were away at work in Pennsylvania. But when we were in Pennsylvania (again, for work) in December, snow caught up with us. This entry is basically just some fun photos taken during the snowfall, and afterwards.
Most of the photos were taken on the Sunday afternoon (you might remember the Eagles Sunday afternoon game with snow flurries that severely limited visibility on TV?), but some were taken in the days after.
As always, please mouse over the pictures for captions.
And yay! Adik still fits into Yaya's old snowsuit! He has outgrown the lovely one that he received from Abang Reza (and that is now going to be handed off to another little Malaysian away from home!).
Well, if there's snow, there must be snow angels!
Yaya wants to make more snow angels. Adik was quite confused as to why Yaya kept lying down on the ground.
The snow was really quite powdery though. Not very good for snowballs or snowmen.
Afterwards, we went back to our room and relaxed. Yaya said she would try some hot chocolate! So I made some using organic whole milk (good!) and melted Hershey's milk chocolate bar (not so good!) in the microwave. Yaya actually drank it! Well, some of it. Papa had to finish it off, but she did try it. And she got a new game for the iPad.
We had a fun time that Sunday afternoon! On Tuesday morning I trekked across a (very large) parking lot over to the other building for the first of three days of workshops at a facility that was conveniently right by the hotel. Unfortunately that morning we got pounded again.
Until the snow melted, the kids had fun playing in it.
It was fun. I am sure it will not be the last snow that we see this winter. Oh joy.
