So we've been trying to find things to do with all of the snow! We officially had a blizzard with high winds, another 6 inches and white out conditions on Wednesday. I've been off of school since last Friday and will not be back until (maybe???) Monday. We've been trying to keep ourselves occupied in the house between trips outside to play.
The trees out back after the first major snowfall over the weekend.
Our patio after the weekend. Later I tried to walk over the table to get a bucket for Clara and I sank down over my knees and still didn't touch the ground. (Not easy when you're 8 months pregnant!)
Beautiful icicles by our garage. The melting snow from the roof refreezes right by the garage door. In one spot we have 3 inches of solid ice.
Chris attempting to shovel on Wednesday afternoon.We've had to put the snow across the street into a side yard. These townhouse communities just don't have a place to put it all! He's 6'4, so you can see how much is piled up. On the other side of the "hill" you drop about 2 feet and then hit the main snowfall.
Clara is loving her "beach" toys and tasting the snow.
She wanted to wear a scarf like Curious George, and she tried her first icicle pop. It was about 12 inches long!
Inside, Clara has been busy helping Mommy cook the meals. All the time off from school has given me a chance to try some real cooking and new recipes.
We also made a few Valentine's for friends. Thank goodness for sticker books!
