SNOWPOCALYPSE

i'm sure you're all aware by now of the storm of doom that persisted over much of the country.  the news forecasts were not lying.  starting tuesday, things got a bit dicey with the weather.  all the wind blowing and flurries starting...so that by tuesday night, there were already several inches on the ground.  the wind really didn't help matters, blowing the snow around and creating drifts that by today were several feet high. 

brent was determined to go into work today (as of last night) thinking he HAD to. the rest of us, the sane ones, were all LOLNO i don't think so.  and of course once he woke up this morning and saw how awful outside was (not to mention that lake county had closed off all its roads...) brent came to his senses.  so we're all enjoying a fabulous snow day.

in case you can't tell...there is a car buried under all that snow...

of course, we haven't been just sitting on our butts.  oh no.  we all went out to brave the weather and clear off the mountains of snow from everywhere.  mary was quite the helper, trying to shovel and clear off the cars.  she also really wanted to make snow angels and throw snow at me.  no big deal...

hope this finds everyone warm and safe inside.  we heard about close to 1000 cars that were trapped overnight on the roads.  egads.  if you don't have to go out, DON'T. i know i'm not. 
and now i'm gonna go burrow under the covers and pretend i'm a bear and hibernate for the next couple days!
