IT SNOWED!!!!!!!

This winter has been one of driest ones that I have experienced. We don't normally get a lot of snow here in the valley but our mountains do get snow. Bogus the local snow resort hasn't opened yet. You can only see traces of snow up in the mountains. The news has been reporting for about a week that a huge storm was coming through starting today. I expected to get a little snow in the valley because it doesn't really snow here. Well I was wrong. We got about 5 inches. I know that may not seem like a lot but for here it is. I wish that it was a day that I could have just stayed home in my warm house but unfortunately it wasn't. During one of my errands I ended up getting Ashely new snow boots and since I could get a 2nd for half off I got myself a pair. I having been talking about getting myself a pair for years but just haven't broke down and done it. When we got home Madison was home from school so I thought it might be nice to surprise Kevin by shoveling for him. The girls were a great help and we were able to get a lot done. I never realized how heavy snow was. Wow shoveling is sure a work out but it was fun working with the girls.

Tonight I had to take Madison to practice but with the snow i didn't want to be driving around too much so I stayed. Ashley had a project to work on for school so ask Allison to help her with it. They did such a nice job. It is fun to see their creative side. It is also nice to know that I can count on Allison to help out.
