Early Wednesday morning, while the snow was still pretty easy to navigate
I've always wanted it to snow on my birthday, but generally it waits to Halloween. So I enjoyed my little birthday present from God--which turned into a massive snowstorm and 2 snowdays for everyone but CSU up here! 
we got at least 2 feet of snow...when Pax was tromping through the snow Tuesday afternoon, it came up to the bottom of his coat-and kept falling all night. So fun!! He LOVED the snow, loved catching snowflakes on his tounge and making snowballs to throw, and just generally had a blast! Yesterday afternoon, however, he came down with a nasty cough, so our plans to trick-or-treat downtown this morning with some other moms + kiddos were cancelled. Bummer. Mama's going a little stir crazy, but coughs and 20 degree weather just don't mix,...so we went to get coffee. Adam's first class got canceled, so he came with us for a nice, snowy morning treat. Now we're home, watching Veggie Tales...I know my kid feels junky when he doesn't even want to play with his trains. 
Poor buddy...he sounds like a very congested, barking seal. Ahh, the beginning of cold season! Hopefully he'll be up to a bit of trick-or -treating tommorow night!

he got train tracks, and trains, and a baseball and bat, and was basically in little boy heaven. This kid knows (and will tell you!) the names of ALL the Thomas and Friends characters...not that we let him watch it all the time, the kid just has his Daddy's memory for names. and faces. It's pretty amazing, actually; he knows them before I do most of the time! I have a post to do about this little one's visit with her family..
..and another about this brand-new sweetie
...and another about my two favorite guys...
uuuhhh...Daddy, I'm trying to eat here.
