Another Snowy Day

Yesterday, as the snow was falling, Rudy was telling us he wanted to shovel the snow and put it on the roof. We asked how he would get it up there ("use Poppy's ladder") and why ("because remember last time the snow was too big and I couldn't walk in it"). Seems he may have been a little traumatized by the last big snowstorm. Luckily, this time we had a few inches but it wasn't too deep for Rudy.
Paul had a basketball game scheduled for today that was cancelled so we headed out to church, since I had to teach Church school (little kids' Sunday school class. After church we drove past Paul's Grandmom's house to see if their sidewalk had been shoveled yet (it had) and to my Dad's house to check on his cat and see if his sidewalk had been shoveled (it had been, too).
Then we headed home for some time in the snow. It was still very cold and windy so we didn't spend much time outside but here are some pictures.

Rudy eating snow as usual. We had to stop him from just picking it up from the middle of the street and eating it!

Rudy kept saying we had to make a snowman but wasn't too interested in doing much so Paul quickly put this one together so we could go inside since we were so cold. Of course, Rudy decided to eat some snow from the snowman!

Lou's snow angel. Our dog just loves the snow and will roll around in it and stick his face all the way in the snow.
