The first BIG snowfall of the winter 2010/2011

Last night it snowed about 15cm, which is quite a shock when you have not really had snow yet.  The boys loved it, and started asking me very early if they could go outside to play in it.  Finally I caved in and we put on lots of warm clothes and braved the weather.  They wanted to make snowmen and throw snowballs, but the snow was not quite right, so we settled on snow angels and shoveling walkways.
