Thanksgiving rescue: Two boys buried alive under 5 feet of snow in New York

CNN) -- Two little boys have something to be thankful for this year following their rescue after spending hours buried under a pile of snow in New York.

The boys, ages 9 and 7, were building a fort Wednesday evening when a snow plow came through a parking lot near their homes in Newburgh.

It pushed even more of the white stuff into the snowbank in which they were playing, leaving them trapped underneath the snow for several hours, according to police.

Newburgh, about 60 miles north of New York City, got more than 6 inches of snow that day.
