HUNDREDS!!

We awoke on Sunday morning to the first snowfall of the winter season...yuck for me...YEA for Peyt.
Our poor trees...Paul went out to try and rescue them, but they are still pretty saggy. P wanted to build "lots of snowmans all over the whole yard", so Paul built him two and called it good. In between building snowman #1 and snowman #2, P asked Paul if they could have a "snowflake fight." That sounds like my kind of fun. I've always been scared of getting pegged by an icey snowball, but a snowflake to the head doesn't sound so bad.During lunch, it started to snow again. I was sitting with my back to the window.
P yelling at the top of his lung: HUNDREDS!! HUNDREDS MAMA!!
Me: Hundreds of what?
P (still yelling with absolute joy): HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF SNOWFLAKES.
Me: Oh you're right. That's great.
Me (thinking in my head): Hundreds? Where did he get that from? We have a hard time counting to twenty without skipping any numbers around here.

We didn't get any snow down here in Spanish Fork, which was kind of disappointing because we were expecting it. Cute pictures!
