A snowblower would have taken all the fun out of this father-son moment during Monday's afternoon snowstorm.

Brian Mirizzi had some help shoveling the driveway from his son, Austin, 2.

He submitted the above photo, taken by Amy Mirizzi.

Have any fun snow photos? Please upload them to avon.patch.com/pics or email Jessie.Sawyer@patch.com.
