Storm of the Century!!! ....it actually may be.....

Well......that was a cold....wind...wet...did I mention cold...season. The first storm hit on Feb 3 and gave us a mere 6 inches. Nothing too concerning....but enough to cancel school. Then the real storm hit on Feb 5 and dropped about 30 inches of snow on us. Then....on Feb 10 we got another 12 - 15 inches.

Andre and I went to a hockey game the evening the snow started. When we left home...it was snowing with force...but we thought the roads would be clear since we would be driving home on the highway. Well...we were met with terrible road conditions. The highway was the worst part of our trip home. It took us about 3 times longer than it should to get home. I was never so happy to see our driveway!! There was too much snow to get the van up the driveway....but I didn't care. We were finally home!


Of course.....the boys can always find weapons...no matter where they look.

At one point they each had one of these icicles....but I reminded them that if they speared each other to death there was no way to get help. I don't think that would really stop them though. I think what stopped them was that the steak we were having for dinner was ready. Ah....steak after a day of shoveling is a happy thing.
