Let It Snow!

Yesterday was March 1st ... I was thinking sprintime & flowers and yet a winter storm blew in.

The snow starting coming down about 1:30 and it was still coming down last night when I went to sleep.

Our DirecTV satellite wasn't working due to the wather. Ugggh. We couldn't even watch our DVR'd shows. It's still not working this morning. I hope it's just because it's covered in snow (it's on our 2nd floor roof) and will fix itself when the snow melts away.

The electricity went out about 8:00 pm Sunday night. I read a book by flashlight for a little while and then finally just went on up to bed. I woke up about 11:30 and the power was back on. Thank goodness.

Here's a few pictures I took late yesterday afternoon ... it's still dark outside, so I have no idea how much snow we actually got last night. If you are a Facebook friend, you've seen these pictures already. I do plan to take current ones a little later when it's light out.

The first thing I have to do when it turns light out is bring more firewood in. I loaded up on it yesterday morning before the storm came through but right now I only have six pieces left in the bin. That should be fun. NOT!

I do plan to bundle Griffin up in some warm clothes and play in the snow a little later. He will love that.

Other than that ... we are staying home today. Where it's safe.
