4th snow day, finally

So we started our forth snow day last week with a black out for 3 hours. It went dark at 7:00 in the morning. The kids were in a panic. It was quite comical. They were feeling there way all over the house for all the candles and battery one they could find. We have these lanterns from Ikea that they even got to use to help ease the nerves. You don't realize what you are missing until you cant have it. Hmmmm. Here we are eating breakfast but it wasn't really this bright. 

This is more like it. Kind of fun though. It did get lighter inside the house as the morning went on. Not sure why we lost power but it finally came on around 10:00 am. Not to bad.


Here they are once again. Mia was feeling better today and the all wanted to go sledding. We still didn't have heat though so I made sure they realized that before they went out. It did not stop them. 


It was a bit wetter this day. Still good for sledding and standing in it but Lily didn't last long until she was wet.



The boys trying to save some snow for water, cause we are on a well. They were worried that we would lose our water soon if the lights didn't turn back on. 


Still good for sledding. Good thing since she missed out on Tuesday. 


But a little bit colder and wetter.


Dave plowed the driveway on Tuesday but we got more so it took a few tries to get up over the bank of snow around his car. He made it down the hill by creeping though. Not to bad when you have a lot of good packing snow. That helps. 


Just some of our friends still enjoying the bird food.
