Snowed-in

What did I sign up for? We got hit by a crazy blizzard last night. It was so bad that all of the schools and a lot of businesses were closed today. We were warned to not leave our houses unless it was an emergency. When we woke up we were literally snowed-in! Our car was buried...there was no way we were going anywhere.





So we decided it was a jammies day :)

By 2 o'clock we had 16 in of fresh snow and a 5 ft wall in front of our door. We were definitely not going anywhere for awhile.


Ben manned up and decide to attack the wall. It took awhile, but he managed to dig us out.




It was too windy to play in the snow, but it was fun to have Ben home all day for our Snow Day!

What!?! I don't understand how you move to Ohio and get more snow than we do. Utah got the short end of the stick. But congratulations anyway- With that much snow, looks like Ben can just go skiing out the front door.
