Blizzard of 2013

We woke up still having power after the long night of strong winds so we were very grateful for that but we did have about 2 feet of snow.

With the wind being so strong all night when we went out to clean up we couldn't get out our front door because there was so much snow blown up against it.

  Katie and Aaron were the first ones out the door so it was funny to see Katie sink to her waist in the snow.

 Aaron is always a huge help but with this much snow he couldn't even lift a shovel full of snow.

 Like always John got to work on the driveway while I cleared the walkway. It took us quite a while but with everyone one helping we got it done in just under 2 hours.

 John decided to let Zach have a turn using the snow blower and he did a pretty good job with it. Hes not quite ready to use this  big machine alone but it was good to have him try it out and know how to be safe while using it.

  We were lucky and didn't get as much snow as they did in Boston so we were able to move on with our day once the driveway was cleared.  It was still pretty windy so the kids didn't really want to stay out and play so we all headed inside to warm up.
