First snow of winter

...and maybe the ONLY snow of the winter for Bowie. It was only an inch or two of snow, followed by a little sleet and freezing rain. Never lost power and the roads were only bad for a little bit. But of course the schools closed early on Tuesday, shut down on Wednesday, and inexplicably opened two hours late on Thursday. Sarah had fun outside on Tuesday, however, and she showed Nicholas how to catch snowflakes with your tongue. Nicholas just tilted his head to the sky, closed his eyes, and opened his mouth with a big smile on his face.
