Snow

 We've had a lot of snow lately. The kids have loved it.

They get to play outside in it a lot more now that we live in a house.

I can stay inside with Ruby and just watch them from the window. It's awesome.

 

The week before Thanksgiving we got a freak snowstorm in our side of town.

Literally, it was just in he north east part of town.

And we got about a foot of snow in one day!

It caught us all by surprise.

On that same day, construction works cut a cable that cause the whole valley

to loose cell phone service and internet. It was really bad timing!

 



Just when almost all the snow from that storm had melted away another one hit this week.

Sunday night it started snowing and it didn't stop until Tuesday!

Monday got 14 inches of snow. But school wasn't delayed or canceled.

And Tuesday we got a two hour delay although we only got between 6-8 inches of snow.

...

Here's the girls ready for school on Monday.

Thankfully my neighbor took them to school because I couldn't get out of the driveway.

I have the best neighbors.

Several of them helped me clear my driveway. Tim let me borrow his snow blower on Monday.
And on Tuesday he came over and just cleared my driveway anonymously.

But I saw him from the window.

My neighbor James used his four  wheeler with a plow to help clear the pile of snow that a big snow plow made when it cleared the street.

And another neighbor with a plow on his pick up truck help clear the street in front of my house.

 



It's so funny watching the kids try to walk in the deep snow.

 



Ruby is happy watching from inside.

 



Sean cleared off the patio and Eli was thrilled to be driving his police car outside again.

 



 

 I love the snow covered views from our house. We really do live in a winter wonderland!

 

 

I feel so lucky that my kids have so many friends that live right by us.

They've had so much fun playing together in the backyard in all the snow recently.
