Yes it snowed today, two days before Halloween. The leaves are still on the trees, some changed colored but many still green. My gardens are still full of blooms. And we were wearing short sleeve shirts earlier in the week. But yes it snowed all day long. It was very crazy but a ton of fun.
When the boys woke up and saw the snow falling, Owen announced "They got it wrong, it's not Halloween, it's Christmas." Then the boys went on to wearing Santa hats talking about winter and Christmas decorations and then of course I searched for our snow gear and we playing in the icy, slushy white stuff. I would say we probably totaled an inch but lots melted as it fell while a dusting actually stuck. At one point there were huge flakes falling fast; it was pretty amazing.

Then we went through our winter gear and Owen was convinced he still could fit his favorite beaver hat from many years before.
Then out we went!
