CRAZY!!!

One of the earliest snowfalls ever recorded in Idaho's history - we canceled our soccer practice tonight of all things due to SNOW!!
The Idaho Girls were thrilled to break out their new winter coats and check out this fun weather anomaly.
Sheer joy from our blue Eskimo girl...
A thumbs up for this kind of fun - although we were sad not to have practice tonight.
Some of us were not ready to give up the trampoline for the season so in between dips in the hot tub a few crazy people in our family tried out snow jumping! Maybe it will be an Olympic sport someday...
One Idaho Girl even braved the snow and the trampoline in shorts! Crazy I say... They are all crazy... (On a side note - out of nostalgia I watched one of my favorite old movies tonight - the life story of Patsy Cline called Sweet Dreams - can anyone guess what song is stuck in my head right now??? I know I am such a cornball I can't help it I love Patsy Cline and I am proud of it!)
A bathing snow beauty... that is a little cold on the feet isn't it A.?? It was really kind of fun, but also really weird to have snow this early. As we were playing in the snow, I looked around our backyard and could not figure out what was so strange, and then I realized the poor trees around us had not even had time to lose their leaves so they were all bent over from the leaves and snow accumulation. I know - nothing gets by me what can I say (a little slow on the uptake most days for sure)!
