Snow!!

On Monday night, a snow and ice storm came through Louisville. It continued to snow through Wednesday. I haven’t heard the actual total accumulation, but I know they were predicting up to 4-8 inches of snow. That’s the biggest storm to hit Louisville since we’ve been here.

On Tuesday morning, Ryan and I went out and played in the snow before I had to go to work. We had a snowball fight, tried to play fetch with Wally and even built our first snowman together. Wally was pretty cute. Because the snow on the ground was also combined with ice, Wally was sometimes able to walk on top of it without sinking. I say sometimes because after every few steps he took, one of his paws would sink down. You could tell he was startled about the ground giving out underneath him. He also walked with his back two legs spread further apart—I guess this was to help him balance. Our sweet Bear was so funny running around the yard!

Our snowman was about three feet tall. Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to make a mouth for him because I needed to get to work. Our silent snowman is still standing, but with the warmer weather coming through, I don’t think he’s going to last long.
