Snow in ABQ?

I thought ABQ didn't get a lot snow in the winter. We had a few storms before Thanksgiving, that resulted in a skiff of snow, delaying the whole city 2 hours, each time, but that was it, so I was very surprised when I woke up one morning to snow, and then it continued to snow all day and into the night. The snow here is very powdery. We tried on several occasions to build a "big" snowman, but were never successful. But we had fun, oh boy did we have fun.
In the past when it snowed, I was always up in the middle of the night plowing parking lots for work. So when I came home after working all night, I slept. I never really had the chance to play in the snow with Little Man...until now. We spent a lot of time outside playing in the snow. It was FUN! It was also really nice because the cold didn't stick around for long. The snow melted in like 2 days, but we got our play on while it was here!

 To give you and idea of how much snow we got.

 Seriously, he wanted to go out like this.

 Snow Angels!

 Yes, he threw this at me...

 He slipped and fell head first into the juniper behind him.

 My foot print, I think we ended up with about 8" of snow.

 He fell again, the snow was deep.

 He ran and ran and ran in the snow.

 He crawled in the snow.

 He ate the snow.

 He ate more snow.

 He is ready to come inside.

He took a picture of his bike because it was "full of snow."
