The Blizzard

Last week brought some pretty nasty weather to our neck of the woods (and to lots of other places around as well).  I heard we ended up getting somewhere between 16 and 18 inches of snow over the course of a couple days.  I have never seen (or felt) anything like it.  Unfortunately, it was way too cold for the kids to even enjoy playing in it, so we were feeling a little cooped up by the time it was all over. It is kinda cool that we have witnessed a blizzard though.  Anyway, here are some pictures from the beginning of last week.








Ike loved touching the doors and saying, "brrr" about a million times a day.

View from our deck.

The boys vegging out and watching some youtube videos.

The wind was blowing so much it made the snow look like a desert...pretty creepy looking.















Ike watching Josh brave the -41 windchill to shovel some of our driveway.











And here is a video that Dave shot (his first of many!).  Cold weather experiment.  

Looks like some more snow is in our future this weekend...hope everybody stays warm!  And have I mentioned lately that we are sooo ready to go to Florida next month?  Sick of this snow already  :)
