And the snow keeps falling!

Yesterday we had quite a bit of snow. In fact I took some pictures and was hoping to post them here. However, today we have so much snow it is crazy! I would guess about two feet of snow! With all the snow comes problems of course. It took hubby two hours to get to work. He said 2 wheel drive cars stuck on the road kept slowing traffic! We also lost power for five hours today! The girls handled it quite well and I am assuming it is quite possible that we will loose power again. So if you don't hear from me for awhile, we are snowed in without power! Thank goodness we have a wood stove. Too bad we don't have a generator though because when the power goes out we loose water too!

We lost power today from 8:15 to 1:15 and then again from 1:30 to 2ish. While the power was out in the morning the girls and I played Candy Land and Memory. They also played quite well together and as a way to get them to help in the cleaning process I told them they could go out and play in the snow after the playroom was clean! It worked and we went outside and had a great time. Here are some of the pictures I took:



The very first thing KK had to do was make a snow angel! Aly was more interested in eating the snow!




The dogs had a great time too even though it was hard for them to run in the snow!



Shasta finds a place to walk that isn't so hard. Check out all of the girls toys covered in snow!



Can you tell that Aly is sitting on a bench in the picture on the left? Our climbing dome was so buried in snow that they had to bend their knees when they hung from the bars.



Check out our patio swing covered in snow! The girls had fun playing in their playhouse.
