-After hearing all sorts of doom and gloom predictions about the snow over the weekend, I was very happy to see that we didn't get any snow! Not even a flurry.

It was in the 50's so I wanted to dress up warm enough. I had on my pajamas plus a sweater plus extra blankets.

We finally got the power back on yesterday!! What a crazy storm! It started Wednesday. They said it was going to snow, but it started out raining so I thought maybe it won't be too bad. Ha.. That rain turned into the nastiest fattest snow I've ever seen!!! It had to be coming down an inch a half hour! It was crazy. Since it was a rainy snow mix it ( Read more... )
