SNOW!!!!!

It all started Yesterday morning. Snow started falling. No big deal. It continued to fall heavier. Okay so there's a few inches on the ground. By noon there is 8-10 inches already. Logan had a program at school and I was getting a little nervous with all of the snow. So I head out a little early. It takes me 25 minutes to get to the school. Driving up Hatch street, which is up hill, was a little nerve wrecking, but I made it up. I knew that 2 hours later when I would be taking the kids home it would only be worse. And worse it was. I ended up getting stuck trying to get up the street to my house. My kind friend and neighbor was behind me and loaded us up in her car. I did not have a key to my house (just a programmed garage door opener in my van) so we stayed at her house until 7:00 p.m. when David could get there to take us home! As of today we have almost 2 feet of snow. So they did cancel school! It is a VERY rare thing around here. Here are a few pics. Logans Christmas program!

The snow has been crazy here too! I have shoveled my drive way four times today. It always does this when Chad is out of town! :) The kids sure love it! Did you get your van home?

We got about two inches here in St. George, and they cancelled school. I guess there isn't a set amount to cancel it for!?! Looks like your kids didn't mind staying home!

Crazy snow! I don't think I have ever seen that much at once. Yes, we do have a couple of snow plows here for the county, but they are for the main roads. The rest gets done by tractors or not done at all. It can be pretty crazy getting around in the unplowed gravel roads (like mine).

We definitely had a white Christmas, didn't we? The pictures are awesome -- I always tell you how photogenic your kids are, Jamie! See you soon -- sometime in the snow, I hope!
