The big winter storm...no quotes this time!

March 8: So much for making fun of the big winter "storm" we were supposed to get a month ago...the storm they predicted for this weekend actually hit! We had blizzard-like conditions that started around midnight last night...I would guess we got well over a foot of snow, and we have some areas, especially in the backyard, where the drifts are about 3 feet high, up to the bottom of our windows. The snow plows have not been through, we called and they said they would not be doing residential streets until some time tomorrow, so we're not sure when we'll get out of here! We, of course, bundled up this morning and headed out to play...the kids loved the snow! I took so many pictures I had to put them in a slideshow...and a couple of videos to boot! In some of the pictures you can see the snow blowing sideways. We haven't seen this much snow since we lived in Michigan!







In this video, the kids are all laying in the snowblower's "ditches" and letting the snow blow over them...Matthew from next door, and his friend, Christopher, are playing with us. I love how Matthew gets in between Alex and the snowblower so she doesn't get hit by the snow! Thanks Matthew!



And here's a short video of Alex playing in the snow with Matthew...she just loves Matthew!
