Well the candy bar that I reach for at a time like that is a SNICKER bar!! the perfect blend of Chocolate, peanuts, caramel goodness!!

This Handsome son of mine celebrated his 5th Birthday today, and he was also the only one of the family not to be surprised to see the seasons first measurable snowfall this morning! His explanation over his lack of surprised was "I prayed that God would make it snow on my Birthday!"
