We've been iced/snowed in since Tuesday and it's Saturday. The sun is out, but it's still just 20 degrees out. The high is supposed to be 45 today so hopefully it will melt and go away, not just melt and make more ice. More snow is forecasted for tomorrow and Wednesday, so I'm not sure what we'll be dealing with this week. We have to make a grocery run today and I'm not looking forward to the crowds. Everybody has been stuck in the house and tomorrow is Super Bowl Sunday. Oh joy! On a positive note, we've really cleaned out the freezer and the pantry.
The sleet storm hit Monday night. It sounded like the house was being bead-blasted all night and there was lots of thunder and lightening to go with it. It was the strangest thing ever and we didn't get much sleep. Tuesday was ok, but Wednesday greeted us with rolling power outages and low gas pressure. Chris braved the cold and made scrambled eggs outside.
After the sleet storm Monday night, we were supposed to get another light dusting of snow Friday morning. We woke to this.
Sam couldn't wait to get out in the snow. He mostly wanted to track down the neighbors and have a snowball fight.
Our house, covered in snow, again. This is starting to happen so often that it's almost not a picture-worthy event any more.
Benny-boo made it out for a little while. He does not have as much waterproof clothing as Sam, so he was not very thrilled. He just learned to walk on sand last weekend and he was not very interested in learning to walk on snow.
It's so nice having neighbors with kids the same age. 7 kiddos across 3 houses.
Could not have made it without many pots of coffee this week, but we were drinking it black to ration the milk.
