I think 1/4 inch of snow is just a big tease. Worse yet, it's like a total race against the clock. By the time the kids get all suited up and out the door, the snow's practically gone. Syd did manage to get several snow balls off, and got Joseph right in the head a couple of times. Still, I wish that if we're going to get snow, we'd get a good 6 inches. Enough to close schools and spend the day sledding and drinking hot cocoa. Otherwise it just really doesn't need to drop below 60 degrees.
