Snow coma!



Snow coma!!
(2/16/10)


Well we are two weeks since the two blizzards of 2010 and we are still digging out! Unfortunately we live in the boonies back a 2 mile DIRT road and we had a few days of strong winds that decided to blow 4 and 6 ft snow drifts over our road and yard. So what do you do when you have 6ft snow drifts you may ask???? Well you make a SNOW FORT!!!! Jacobs cousins came over and they even ate their lunch and drank hot cocoa out in the fort. It was too windy for a roof (we had a tarp but couldn't secure it good enough). The last picture is Jacob succumbing to the snow coma after getting some food and warm cocoa in his tummy! We had to wake him up and take him inside for a very loooonnnngggg nap!

We finally got out a few days ago and have been out every day since!!!! I can't stand anymore days at home so all of our crafts and projects have been put on hold until I can stand staying in my house again!!!

By the way, this is how we finally got out of our house!!!! We had to call in the big guns, the plow on the family tractor just couldn't make a dent in all the snow and the drifts! So luckily a neighbor farmer had a tractor with an 8ft snow blower on it!







In addition to this post, check to the right under blog archive and read all of the "Snow" posts. Titles "Enough Already", "Enough Already - AGAIN!", "SNOW-Mageddeon", "How to survive cabin fever with a toddler" and finally "How to survive cabin fever with a toddler - Part 2".

Wow! How can two sides of the country be so different? The trees and flowers are in full bloom here, it is so sunny and warm.

Hope Spring springs soon for you too.

Hey- I couldn't find a way to email you back. Jennisa Joy at Once Upon a Blog did my blog design including the headers.

How very COOL!!! My son would love it! He's made a little igloo this winter, and I think he's working on something else right now. We're supposed to be getting another snow storm tonight, and we already have so much snow-I don't think our snow drifts have been 6 ft. high, tho! :)
