Colorado weather is bipolar! 
There is no other explanation for this crazy spring weather. Tuesday we enjoyed 70 degrees and sunshine and Wednesday we played in two feet of snow. It put a swift end to our plans for the day. I was expecting a few inches, but we were snowed in! 

B decided to head in to the Kitchen which was absolutely bonkers. The entire city was shutting down and the snow projections were coming in with high winds and inches and inches of snow. I texted and texted and texted him begging him to come home so he didn’t get stuck at the kitchen for the night. And then we waited…

And we decided to decorate Easter eggs. I didn’t stock up for much at the store the previous day because they weren’t projecting this much snow. I did manage to pick up “eggs” and dyes and the girls each picked out their own perfect kit. 
Gwyneth went with glitter eggs which is not at all surprising. 
I bought fake eggs to decorate because I wanted to take them to the hotel with us. They weren’t quite heavy enough though and floated on top of the dye. The girls had to keep spinning them and pushing them down and they ended up with stained finger tips but didn’t seem to mind at all. I’m not sure I would recommend it, but they did make for good travel.

B left the Kitchen at 1:00 and finally made in to our garage around 3:00 p.m. Keep in mind he works about 10 minutes from our house. He made it to our street before getting stuck. Our neighbors (who you can see behind Annabelle below) got stuck on the street also. The dads had to shovel the cars off the street and made a path down the road with their snowblowers for the rest of the neighbors.

We were so thankful that B made it home in this weather and we were able to enjoy the beautiful snowfall together.

Annabelle decorated snazzy mustache and top hat eggs. Very dapper.

I use to think I was the only one who enjoyed all this Colorado snowfall, but my little ladies love it too. I don’t think B dislikes it — at least not as much since he got a snowblower!
