Blizzard 2009

We had a blizzard here on Saturday! It started snowing Friday night and didn't stop till Saturday night. We got close to 20 inches of snow!!! This is the most I've ever seen in my lifetime and E thinks it is the most he's seen since he's been here in VA. (He's lived here since he was 2.)
We bundled up the kiddos and took them outside on Saturday. Miss A had a good time trying to walk/trudge through the snow. Baby F was all warm inside the Baby Bjorn in E's jacket.
Miss A almost all ready to go...she's wearing a ski bib and boots that were handed down to us from a friend last year...she couldn't fit into any of it last year but she fits it so well this year and I am so thankful to have it-

Our cars covered in snow-

Miss A smiling under her scarf (that's actually my scarf that luckily worked for her)-
E holding F in the Baby Bjorn under his coat and Miss A-


Miss A and me-


E and Miss A walking down our street after it was plowed-


The backs of our cars-


Our house-


Miss A with rosy red cheeks and red nose-

  
Our deck earlier in the day-
 
Our deck that night-


Our back yard...you can just barely see the top of the gas can sticking out of the snow-


This picture below gives you an idea of how high the snow came up on our patio door...that snow is still there as I am posting this-
 

I love this tree that is behind our townhouse-
 
Our neighbor across the street took this pic of us from his window-
This photo was taken on Sunday from our upstairs bedroom window when E went out to dig out our cars...E is in the tan jacket with the tan hat on and he's carrying the shovel...a bunch of the neighbors came outside to help each other out...it was wonderful and such a blessing!

WOW! This post makes me soooo cold! I am going to drink some hot cocoa now, even though it is only 55 degrees here.
