Our ‘almost’ white Christmas

Well, we just missed the storm that brought over a foot of snow to New York, but I’m actually happy about it this year! After losing power last year and being stuck in over a foot of snow, which seemed like all winter long to me lol, I’m glad we only got a few inches. The only part that makes me sad is that we didn’t get it on Christmas!!

Carter didn’t really play in the first snow we had a few weeks ago.. so on Sunday afternoon after we had enough on the ground to play in, that's just what we did…play :)

Oh yeah, and scare the hundreds of geese in our back yard :)

Carter thought his SpongeBob mask would do the trick and it worked!!! After he scared them he yelled “I did it mom, now come get me!” Haha!! He was actually pretty far away, but thanks to my new zoom lens I got from the hubs for xmas, I was able to get the shots!!

Then, we scooped some snow, came in and made snow ice-cream! I stole the recipe from Mandi…I remembered her and Bailey made it last year during the blizzard. It was actually pretty tasty!
