The Big Snow!

The Weatherman said we would get a lot of snow, but I'll tell you right now I don't trust that Weatherman (because most of the time a "lot of snow" turns out to be a little skif). Well...this time he was right!

We woke up this morning to 6-8" of snow! It was amazing and a lot of snow for the valley. I don't remember the last time we had so much snow. Schools were canceled, including BSU! Another bonus, I didn't have to work! I was so happy to have Brandon home for the day. However, I couldn't get him to come play in the snow with me. This was not going to stop this pregnant woman. I squeeeeeezed into my snow pants and found a long shirt and hoodie (to cover the fact that nothing under the sun was going to get my zipper up), and I headed out into the snow. It is a lot of work to walk through six inches of snow! I brought my camera to take pictures, but have few to show because it was still snowing/raining a bit and I didn't want "snappy" to get wet. I was going to head over to the river (I knew it would be beautiful over there), but trapesing through that much snow, with a belly, was more than I could handle. Instead I headed up to Warmsprings and home. It was a nice walk and to be honest I was going to do whatever I had to, to get this kid to come out!

We spent the rest of the day watching movies and I worked on Christmasy things. My boss called that afternoon to ask if I could come into work and help. I agreed to work from 7p-11p. I wasn't too excited about it because I was enjoying my time with Brandon, but, with a little one on the way I figured it would be beneficial to work a few extra hours.

It was a fun day, I couldn't believe all the snow, I absolutely loved it!!!





Side Note: I love a ton of snow so long as I am with my family and we don't have to go anywhere. Otherwise I can do without it and prefer the warmth and sunshine!
