First Snow

We had so many important things we were supposed to get done today...
Then it snowed.
All day.
And we were forced, FORCED I say, to stay home
play in the snow
throw snowballs
discover hiding places under pine trees
catch snowflakes on our tongues
drink hot chocolates
eat Grampa's famous homemade chili
take a walk in the woods
and enjoy this day with every fiber of our being.
Daddy's winter walk in the woods resulted in bringing home an
EIGHT POINT BUCK!
He is SO proud of himself!
(Lily said "have fun killing deer!" as he left the house this morning,
then she was devastated to see a dead deer in the yard this afternoon...
not sure she fully understood the process.)

My kids probably wish you were their mom. You're so much fun!

But Frank, really. After seeing Bambi, how could you be "man in the forest?"

Can I come over for venison stew though?
