Snowstorm!

We got lots of snow yesterday - Erik even worked from home (the NEVER happens). The boys and I tried to accommodate and be quiet and out of his way (so I could prove to him that he could work here once in a while), but of course it didn't work. When Daddy is home the boys want to be right by his side. Oh well, we got one day! Jake and Ben went out to help Erik shovel in the morning. We didn't have shovels for them, so they improvised with hockey sticks (we bought them their own shovels later in the day). As you can see by the pictures, the snow was wet and coming down hard - I think we ended up with about a foot! Although Ben HAD to be cold, he wouldn't come in until Erik did. Jake and Jackson on the other hand, were ready to come in for hot chocolate (and a meaty bone).
