Snow much snow...

I love snow, but yesterday I felt like we were going to be swallowed by the snow fairies. The snow at our house was melting, and we were finally getting a good look at our grass. But then we woke up to snow which I was somewhat excited for, but then it just kept coming. It snowed the entire day, I don't think it stopped once. I shoveled the sidewalk and driveway several times. Picking up Ellie from school was a total nightmare. You always have the moms who think they are the only ones in the world, and park where they want at the school, even if they are parked illegal, but yesterday with the snow coming down as hard as it was, and even more self absorbed moms/dads picking up their kiddos left for some major traffic jams in front of the school. After picking up Ellie, we headed to Kent's for a few items I would be needing for dinner. The parking lot was so icy, we watched two accidents take place. Then as we were leaving we started sliding backwards down the hill at the stop light, we slid through the stop sign at the rail road tracks, and almost got stuck in our own drive way. CRAZY!! By the time Ray left for work the roads and sidewalks had turned to a sheet of ice, and I was stressing, hoping he would make it to work safely. By the time I went to bed the stars had come out, and the fog had set in. This morning when we got up to get ready for school, the skies were clear, and the sun was out and shining. CRAZY!! So above are pictures of the storm. The bottom picture is Jake's cute little snowman, well what is left of him from the storm. I love snow, and I love winter, but maybe spring could just hurry up and get here already, and then stay here the rest of the year.
