Bbbbrrrrrrr ...

It's still super cold here. It snowed most of yesterday afternoon and we got about an inch of very fluffy snow. It's so "dry" that it won't pack in a snowball at all - it just falls apart. It's been so cold for so long here that the snow stuck to the roads and made driving today a little difficult. All the schools in the area were closed today.

I couldn't stand to be at the house all day so Carter and I drove over to Sarah's house to play with her and Mary Grace for a little while. It was a little sketchy driving out of our neighborhood, but all the other roads were fine. Carter had lots of fun playing. Mary Grace's tunnel was set up that she got from Christmas and Carter really liked playing in it. We have 2 similar ones that Carter got for his birthday. Because he's gotten so many gifts lately, we haven't gotten them out yet. But since it looks like we'll be spending most (if not all) of the weekend at home, we'll probably get them out tomorrow.




Here are a few cute pictures of Carter and Mary Grace ...




Once I finally got Carter down for a nap this afternoon, I decided I should finish shoveling the driveway. Brian did the section next to the garage that doesn't get any sun, but there was still a lot more driveway that needed help. Fortunately or unfortunately Carter took a longer nap and I spent an hour and a half in 20F weather shoveling. It was really hard getting the snow up from where we'd already driven on it. I am already really sore. Tomorrow is going to be rough.

When Brian got home he commented that I must really want to get out this weekend. He's right. Being housebound all weekend would drive me nuts!
