Snow Day!

As predicted we got quite the storm yesterday and overnight.  The wind was INSANE, as was the resulting drifting.  It was fun to watch the wind whip across the tundra and continually reshape the snow as we looked out the window in our pajamas and slippers. We could see cars that were parked on the street slowly disappear under the snow and idiots who thought they could drive through the drifts but got stuck in the middle of the road.  We got an email that daycare would be closed for today and the University, which was originally scheduled to be closed until 10:30am, ended up cancelling classes altogether.  That meant - family snow day!!!  I needed to try and work while keeping an eye on the ever-needy Audrey and Bill spent the entire day studying for a big test he has coming up.  We did get a chance to make hot chocolate and sneak out into the snow for some playtime.
Out our front door:
 Using Audrey to show height comparison.  :)
 Getting ready for some fun in the snow!
 I'm ready!
Playing in the large drift in our driveway.
And just because we had some extra time on our hands....

About This Blog

Laura began this blog with the intention of someday chronicling our children's lives since our family is spread out from east coast to west. We wanted a way for family to get up-to-date news. Since we had no children at the time, it became a blog that followed our (her) foodie thoughts. Cooking, eating out and drinking wine are huge hobbies of ours so it only seemed fitting. Now that children are here we're going to attempt to meld the two together. You will notice "Foodies" and "Family" links at the top left of the page underneath the header photos. Use these links to focus in on the entries you want to read and bypass the others. We hope you enjoy.
