Snow Day #2

Snow!

Well, Indianapolis had the most snow in 13 years last night... We have over a foot of snow. The kids are loving it, but tomorrow school is canceled for the SECOND DAY IN A ROW!!! lol What's a mom to do??? At least I bought supplies to make chocolate chip cookies, so that will keep them busy for a little while.

Deer on a Snowy Day

Yesterday after picking up the kids at my mom's we spotted a few groups of deer grazing in the snow. Sydney wanted me to post the pics we took under the heading: Deer on a Snowy Day. So, here you go, Sis.

The pics are kind of hard to see because they are a little blurry due to the deer moving, the snow, and how far away the deer were from where I was standing.

Let it snow...

This was taken out my bedroom window this morning. (Don't mind all the smudges, they are like a year's worth of kids fingerprints on the window...haha) The snow is pretty nasty out there. It will be forever before the Jag is out of the snow - good thing its broke down! The kids' bikes and such are nearly covered in the snow drifts, some of them appear to be about 3ft around the neighborhood. It dropped sleet and ice for about 12 hours yesterday on top of all that snow, too. I had to get something out of the trunk last night and my feet didn't drop through the snow at all.

I think its funny that I can look outside and see "feet" of snow but the tops of the vehicles are clean.

Lime and Violet

Ok, so I've never in my life listened to a PodCast. I really wasn't even sure what it was - I had an idea, but hadn't went there myself. UNTIL TODAY. And let me tell you, Lime and Violet are my new heroes haha. They talk about knitting, yarn, life, they laugh, they cuss, they make fun, how much better could you possibly get?????

I'm downloading all the previous PodCasts as I sit here typing listening to "Smells Like Hippies" and watching it sleet, ice, and snow outside.

Speaking of weather, I'm not really sure what to think. It hasn't snowed 12in or anything, in fact, the tops of the cars are snow-free. BUT, there is lots of snowfall, I think that the sleet/rain/ice/crap melted the snow off the cars. I haven't been out, but there are about 3in up the back sliding doors. I would estimate we got 4-6 inches so far. Its supposed to drop precipitation from the sky in one form or another for the next 12 hours or so.
