December Storm 2010

Yesterday we were hit with about 15 inches of snow. I tried to go get the kids on Saturday morning around 9, but 2 minutes from home my 4 wheel drive went out. My trail blazer does not handle well in snow in 2 wheel drive. I would take the yukon which plows through the snow like a monster truck, but there isn't heat... I can suck it up but with it being 4 degrees my poor kids can't suffer.

Since the kids had to stay at my parent another day and night, I actually laid around ALL day, took a nap AND helped shovel the driveway with Mike. I'm very thankful it wasn't heavy snow since the end and middle of the driveway were about 3 1/2 feet deep and the front door was about 3 feet deep. It took us about an hour or so to do it, and man does my back hurt!!

Here is the path Mike made for Halle to go outside


We can make a pretty sweet tunnel along the driveway now!

  1. We haven't gotten snow, but it is freezing for down here. Its not that cold compared to what you all are getting, but our homes are built like yours either! Winter is coming harsh this year. We are down into the teens at night and in the thirties has highs. Definitely Jan. and Feb. weather!
