Lots of Snow!
We finally have A LOT of snow!!!! I sure had my doubts about the predictions of significant snow here, but it seems that they were right for once. I can't remember the last time we had this much snow, even in Iowa! Yesterday the Gracie and Owen were outside for more than a couple hours after their early dismissal from school. They stayed out until dark and then were back at it again before 9am Saturday morning. I think they have really missed the snow! It started on Friday and has not really quit. The university was shut down on Friday afternoon, but of course, Nick had to stay and didn't get home until Friday evening after dark. He also had to go back in on Saturday morning to make sure basketball teams could get to the arena. Gracie is wondering why Owen's head is in the snow. We ventured out onto the road and tried some sledding on one of the hills. We met the snow plow and chatted for a bit with the man driving it....
