2:23 SNOW!

So it snowed. And when it snows here on the East coast, a lot of people freak out. It just so happened that 10 hours before snow hit the ground, the entire state of Virginia was in a state of emergency. This storm did however break records here as the biggest storm in Dec, EVER! The last time they had a storm comparable to this was in Jan of '66. so when we had to dig our car out of it's parking spot this morning, it was a big deal. the official for our neighborhood is 18". But the snow drifts made it almost 3 feet deep. like right behind the car.

I brushed the snow half off to prove there was indeed a car under there. We could have literally slid from the top of the car, over the trunk and onto the street without feeling any bumps.

As you see in yesterdays post, Xan experienced it and loved it!

That looks like fantastic snow! Isn't it great that kids just enjoy it and don't realize what a hassle it is yet?
