Make It Stop!

I can barely pull out of my ice covered driveway into our narrowly plowed snow-packed alley already. Right now the snow is coming down sideways and it's currently 25 degrees. The ground has been covered in snow for only a couple of weeks, but I am already sick of it. Maybe if it were warmer I'd tolerate it. I know it could be worse. My little brother is on a Mission in Spokane, WA where they have had at least 5 feet, that's 60 inches, of snow in the last few weeks and are expecting more.

It's not all bad. We have had fun in the snow with the boys. We went sledding a few weeks ago, they loved that. I have found that Isaac would stay outside in the snow all day if I let him. Andrew only lasts until his wrists get cold or the snow gets down his neck. Once I can get on the other computer and download pictures I will add them.

It is also nice to know that lots of snow is falling on the mountains. Here in the desert we really need that snow from the mountains. Still I can't help but wish for at least 50 degree days. Here's to another 2-3 months of white stuff and cold.

It's so funny how (sometimes) we are never happy with what we have. I have at least 50 degree weather here; sometimes it's even in the 70's and all I can say is "Were's the snow!". Ask me next winter what I want...

Well, I'd invite you to visit us here in Hurricne again, but we have snow ourselves. AGAIN! LOVE MOM

Snow is awesome even if you have to do a 10 point turn about to get out of the driveway. I would write more, but I'm going to go sledding with boys. =)
