Blizzard of Oz Part 2

I am so tired of winter. I am so tired of the cold temps. I am so so so tired of snow. Poor Ben looks at "his park" every morning and asks if its a nice day outside so he can go play. This winter seems unusually cruel maybe it was because we got so spoiled last year with our first winter back in the mid-west being so mild. But now it is the end of March and it snowed yesterday and we are getting another major snow storm tomorrow. The only thing getting me through these days is knowing that in 13 days our toes will be in the sand!

So here are the highlights of our second major snow storm (just days after the first one)...

-It was the heavy wet kind of snow
-We probably got 8 inches on top of the 12 we already had
-We woke up to a very cold house
-We lost power sometime during the night
-Ben had funny playing cars by lantern light
-We packed up and went to my parents who had power
-The snow was really really pretty
-Our power came back on late morning so we went back home
-Ben had a blast sledding, shoveling, eating snow and building his Irish Snow-Monster
