What A Storm

Wednesday started off with some light snow in the early a.m. hours and while were were all sleeping the snow came down like crazy!

By early afternoon we had about a foot on the ground and there was still now end to the storm.

Katie the brave one wanted to go out and play so she got dressed up into her winter gear and headed outside.

John went to clear a path for her and after about an hour you could hardly tell he was even out there.

Around 4 there was about 14 inches on the ground and the snow had slowed down so we all went to clean up.

As you can see even our snow blower couldn't handle all the snow and we had to go over it twice to clear the driveway.

Both Zach and Katie were very big helpers in getting the cars cleaned off and helped me shovel. We had a snow fight and we all jumped into the big piles of the snow once we were done working. We love to play in the snow it's just a mess to clean up. After about 3 hours we got the driveway cleaned and we went in to warm up, but the snow was still coming down so we know we would have to go back out. We had a fun day off, no school and no work it was nice to have an extra day to hang out as a family.

Joe was out in Boston when that all went down. He said everything was closed down and lost a day of work because of it (making him come home on Sat. instead of Fri.) That must have been A LOT of snow!!!

He is going back east in a month or so. I told him I should go too so that I can go and play with you guys for the week while he has to work .... I think it sounds like an awesome plan!
