Let me summarize the day for you.....I looked out the window this morning at 6:15am and it was snowing. I look out the window right now at 9:00 pm and it is STILL snowing! They predicted another 3-5 inches just for today, on top of the 5 1/2 inches we got over the weekend. I am guessing we are around the 4-5 inch mark just for today b/c it's snowed pretty hard all day long!
Luckily, Michael and I chose to carpool to work today b/c we knew what the forecast held - and boy was it a good decision. Not all the roads got plowed - plus the snow just kept coming too fast. None of the roads we drove home on were plowed, so it was a very messy and slow ride home. But Michael drove really safe and we made it home safe and sound!
And being the big kids we are, we had to walk to go eat dinner somewhere, just so we would have an excuse to go out in it. We are still in the amazed phase where we can't believe we live somewhere that is getting so much snow! We are really trying to appreciate and take advantage of the fact that we get to have a snowy winter for once (even though it's still Fall technically!). And would you believe they are calling for another couple of inches on Thursday and then more this weekend???! :D
Anyways, we just walked to the restaurant just next to our apartment complex, but down the street just a bit. Some of the pics aren't very easy to see us in b/c the snow is still coming down pretty hard! (And if I'm making wierd faces in any of the pics, it is because it was freaking cold and the snow was blowing into my eyes making me flinch.) haha
