Snow in October

The kids enjoyed the first snowfall of the season, Oct 10, 2009. It began snowing the day before but most of the accumulation fell overnight. We got out the winter gear, figured out who fit what and sent them out to play. They had a great time and were out for 1 1/2 hrs. They came in and had some hot chocolate and lunch. They enjoyed it today but we'll see how quickly the novelty wears off. Ben thinks it's cold now and I just have to laugh - all I can think is wait 3 more months. It's going to be a long winter!!!!

Percy also enjoyed the snow too. when I opened the door he bounded out like he always does and stopped dead in his tracks. That only lasted for a second and then he was bounding off enjoying the white stuff! He's not a great dog for snow. He just collects it in his leg hair. We are going to get him clipped very soon, as soon as the stitches from his neuter are healed!
