Snowmaggedon 2011

So yesterday was day 2 of snowmaggedon 2011. It was pretty crazy to wake up to 4+ foot snow drifts in our backyard (in the exact spot where we had been shoveling the night before). We only got around 20 inches of actual snow, but the mega winds created huge drifts. Then add to that crazy thundersnow (which I unfortunately missed). It was definitely one for the record books... and the baby book.

Today, we have lots of sun, but super cold. The current temp is -9 degrees. That the temp, not the "feels like" temp. I have not left this house since Monday, cabin fever has definitely set in.

On a positive note: the snow gave us a little "fenced in" yard for the dog!
