Snow Way!

On Monday we got snow. It was very exciting. Just the amount you see below was enough to close the schools and halt most Irish operations. Clearly an unusual phenomenon, the whole country was abuzz with the event. Quite a lot of snow fell, at least so it seemed to me, but most melted as soon as it hit the ground. So there were no snowmen or snow angels. In fact, we didn't even leave the house on Monday. Well, not in such treacherous conditions...
Katie was mesmerized by it. She sat and looked out the window most of the day.

Snow is a magical thing, especially for this Florida girl. But it's really just really cold rain. And what is the fun in that? By Tuesday/Wednesday the snow had all melted and the place was covered in muddy puddles. Cold muddy puddles. Cold muddy puddles that someone little likes to jump in and track into the house. And then who has to clean up? That's right... poor Manus.
