First snow/Thanksgiving

We had our first snow last Wednesday. Ro was thrilled. He's pretty much been waiting for it to snow since it quit back in March/April. He was desperate to get out and build a snowman and an igloo. He built a four inch snowman and an igloo of about the same height. They were really just snow mounds. It wasn't the right kind of snow for building things. Try explaining that to a four year old whose been waiting for it to snow for eight months.

Thanksgiving was ok. Both kids wailed throughout the entire meal. Because turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, etc. is the equivalent of feeding them steaming bowls of hot poison. The only thing they both like is grilled cheese. The highlight of the day was Ro got to build a gingerbread house with Grandma and Grandpa.
