So back in mid December we had a week of snow here. It snowed several inches and wouldn't get warm enough for it to melt! Schools were closed for a week! It was crazy.
Fast forward 9-ish weeks and boom, we get hit with snow again, this time 14+ inches!!! It has been insane! It snowed pretty much non-stop for 2 days. I'm not sure where we live! This is so unusual for us! Ok once a year maybe, is normal, with one or two days of the schools shut down and not much happening in town, but not going on eight, yes, EIGHT snow days {not in a row, but total}! Oh and on top of the 14 inches of snow we also got freezing rain! Thankfully we didn't loose power.
Watching the snow come down.
Our house day 1
Our house day 2
Our street
Its hard to read, but that tape measure says 14.5 inches and that's in our backyard!
Lily wasn't into it.
She liked it a bit more after a nice neighbor shoveled some of the sidewalk.
Sliding!
Crazy icicles hanging from the roof
Freezing rain pounding on the window
And that leads us to today. It was finally starting to warm up and the layer of ice was starting to melt so we ventured out to play in it for a bit.
I'm starting to wonder if this snow was just a once-in-a-life-time type thing, or if this could be more of a common occurrence every winter. If it's going to happen more often, we need to invest in some good winter clothes {and perhaps a second vehicle that can drive in it}!
If you have/had snow where you are, hope you had fun playing in it and aren't suffering from cabin fever!
