Snow Day!!!!

To say the past few days have been stressful would be an understatement. Like many of you, we were victims of the Great Blizzard of 2010. That's my name for it anyway. Creative, no? Anyhoo - we lost power around midnight on Friday, and as of today, still no power and no definitive answer from AEP as to when it might be turned back on. Scary stuff because our heat is all electric! Thankfully, I have wonderful in laws that are letting us crash their pad until power and heat is restored at the Zimmerman abode. We measured it Saturday morning and we had a whopping 25 inches of snow on the ground!!! I have never seen so much snow in our neck of the woods at one time. This whole sitch has had me seriously contemplating flying south permanently...too bad Phil won't ever leave. Boo on him! :)

As usual, I took many pictures to share of the madness (and some cute ones of the girlies too!!

The view from our front door:















Our SUV under the snow:















The trip off the hill was a little rough, so say the least:

















And here are a few of the kiddos playing in all of this snow!

Daddy and Ralphie, er, Ella:















Wheeeeeee!!!!
















That's all for now :) Keep your fingers crossed power comes on tonight and that the insurance adjusters don't have to make a trip to our house due to any wayward trees!
