Haha...the news was calling our blizzard Snowmaggedon of 2011. On Feb. 1, 2011, we had a nice snow storm. It started with freezing rain around 9pm Monday night. Tuesday morning we woke up to snow. It snowed all day with very strong winds. We got a bout 11.5 inches of snow. School was shut down Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Our church meetings were also cancelled on Sunday. Although the roads were cleared by Sunday, it was nice to have a family day. The girls had a fun time playing out in the snow. The roads were awful until almost Saturday afternoon. Tuesday and Wednesday our high temperature was only in the single digits with wind chills below zero. It was very cold. I think we all got cabin fever and were ready to get out of the house. Friday it snowed a little bit more. Saturday was nice though because it warmed up to about 40 and the roads melted and we shoveled our back yard and driveway.

Love the glasses, they are so cute on her. You're being such a good sport about all that snow! I remember well the "snow days" at school and at church. There is something so cozy about everyone being "stuck" at home.
