The snow day(s) that never end. . .

This January has been crazy with storms. I feel as if I haven't seen blue sky since Christmas. The sky has been filled with clouds and inversion on and off and the snow has been crazy. We ended up with over 30" of snow within a 24 hour period. I haven't seen snow like that since I was around 13 or 14. It took me 3 hours that day to shovel out of our driveway.

About a week after that big storm we ended up with a big ice freeze. It was raining outside and the second the rain hit a surface it froze into ice. Driveways, streets, parking lots were all ice skating rinks. I went to go pick Eston up from Kindergarten that day. As I stepped out of my car to get him my feet went out from under me. Luckily I caught myself, but it took me 5 minutes to get out of my car and just get to the sidewalk that was 10 feet away. I was at the school for about an hour trying to get Eston and then getting stuck behind cars who were stuck from the ice.

As tiring as all this snow has been to work around, I must say it has added a lot of fun and excitement to. We got great stories from all of it.

Hudson got to go play in the snow for the first time with the kids. He didn't know what to make of the white stuff falling on him. He kept looking up and squinting as it hit him and then he would laugh. I let him feel the snow and he instantly started to cry because of the cold. That ended his play day.

I look forward to when the snow has melted and we can spend more time outside with clean air.
