I wish I was talking Dairy Queen! But I'm talkin' snow! I admit I was doubtful- but I guess it was pretty obvious...and it hit. Really mostly over night. Thank goodness we were bundled up warm inside and got to watch it out our front window. It was really the blowing! I could still see our driveway when we went to bed- the snow was just blowing around, very hard, kind of scary really- even some lightning! But it landed eventually and boy did it!
I think we got around 22 inches. I didn't measure though- but it sure looks deep! And it has since been sunny and gorgeous!
Here are some pictures of the dig out. Thankfully I have a strong husband! And my parents had some helpers come by and help them- a huge thank you to them! I shudder to think of my poor parents digging out their 2 lane drive...
But anyway- I haven't had to be out on the roads and Jenna had 2 snow days- gotta love that!
We have since had a few fun days enjoying it. Unfortunately Scott and his dad had to work in it- rodding our sewer- yuck! But the kids had fun outside while they worked! We have taken the kids for a walk down the block pulling them on the sleds too. That was fun! It made me think of the days when horse drawn sleds were means of transport... I am an oldie at heart.
But this one will go down in the books!
While waiting and wondering if it was going to hit- I had to send Jenna off to school... I was uneasy about it!
Our shoveling Machine! What would we have done without him? We love our Daddy!!

Back- really it is beautiful!
The kids enjoying it!
Mt. Carole- the pile from our neighbor Carole's drive way- the kids favorite place to climb- and slide down.
We tried a fort- but it didn't really work...
Ash during the sewer work- and the porch toys- no protecting them with this weather!
