October 6 was the first snow fall of the year.It is kind of family tradition that when the first snow falls we get to play Christmas music that day, but then not again until after Thanksgiving. It snowed quit a bit and was perfect snow man building snow. HEAVY and wet. My poor little maple tree still had all it's leaves on it and its little branches were so heavy. When I looked out the front door it's branches were laying on the ground, thank goodness they weren't broken off. Needless to say I was a little frantic. I knew at any minute my little tree's branches would break off. So my hero (Robin) went out and shook all the snow off the tree. He was soaked and cold when he got back in, but I think he saved little maple tree's branches from any permanent damage.
Kenidee and Bennett had so much fun playing in the snow. Kenidee rolled and rolled snow to make a snowman. Bennett well.... he just rolled and rolled. They were both outside for a long time. When they finally decided that they were wet and cold, they came in to enjoy a hot cup of hot chocolate.
In a day or two the snow had melted and Kenidee and Bennett were both a little sad but soon we will have snow until June!
