Snow Day

Mother Nature finally decided to dump snow on us and believe me, I have been waiting for it. There is nothing like a good old fashion snow day to regroup and act like you are 10 again. The Weather Channel was even here in little old Binghamton reporting on today's' snow accumulation. We have been so lucky to have it miss us this winter, and it was due time! Unfortunately it makes for a little bit of cabin fever so this afternoon we headed out into the storm. We started at our house and then ended up at Todd's parents house for some sledding fun. Their hill is so long and you can certainly get some speed on it and end up all the way down in the woods. The walk back up the hill is a killer so you have to pace yourself. One of these years we will come up with some sort of pulley system that will make it much, much better!
We made a small jump in the sledding trail and Graydon had a ball going over it although it did hurt a little.


All the little birds were out in full force today eating as much as they could to keep warm. The Chickadees didn't mind that I was standing so close to them and they were tweeting up a storm.
This one was yelling at anyone of them that got close to him. No wonder why they calls these little cuties "clowns".
They certainly put a HUGE smile on my face...
Callie was in heaven being outside with us. She spread her little toes out to be able to walk on the snow and it was so much like snowshoes.
A very nice day with much needed R & R!!

Thank you Family!!
