Lots of Snow!



Check out our burried Toyota Corolla!



Ed tried plowing the snow so we could get out! We had tickets to Disney on Ice and no matter how hard Daddy tried, he couldn't get us out! We were so sad! We couldn't change the tickets either, we just lost our money and never got to see the show!



Look at all that snow! Our deck is almost buried!



KK had fun playing in it!



Aly made snow angels!

The month of February brought a lot of snow for us! In fact we got over two feet of snow. We both think it is the most we have ever gotten since living here for the past 8 years. The storm brought so much snow that we lost power on Thursday at 5:05 p.m. all the way through Sunday at 1:25 p.m. Now that was a long time to be without power! What made things worse was that we were snowed in as well! We live at the bottom of a steep gravel road and no one on our street could make it to the top! Many tried too! Even with chains and 4 wheel drive! First person was finally able to get out Sunday afternoon after some snow had finally started to melt!

I have to say, KK handled the power outage very well! She just played with her toys and found other ways to entertain herself. The baby did good until it got dark each night! We started going to bed around 7:30 every night during the power outage! Aly had a harder time! She missed TV and the lights! We were lucky though that we have a wood stove and were able to build fires to help keep us warm! We even used the wood stove to make coffee and heat up some canned food!

I love a good snow storm but I have to admit, it is much more enjoyable with the power on! The girls said they were ready for spring and didn't want it to snow anymore!
