So much snow! NOT!!!

Last Friday we were told of a severe winter storm that was going to hit Friday afternoon and last through Saturday morning. It was suppose to the worst storm we have had since 1996 with freezing rain and snow up to 8 whole inches (yeah I laughed too!!!). So on Friday morning about 9:45 I get a call from the kids school telling me that they are dismissing early to beat the storm and that the kid will be out at 12: 35. This is the third time this has happened in the two winters that we have been here. People hear the word snow and go into panic mode. So Friday night Kev and I go out on our date and the normally busy Friday night dinner rush was no where to be found which made it really great for us because we didn't have to wait. The town looked like a ghost town. Our very busy Saturday turned out to be very relaxing as all activities on Saturday were canceled. So we took advantage of the snow and went sledding with the kids. Then they spent about 3 more hours out in our yard playing. Its not very common to get this much snow so I thought I would take some pictures. All of us from Idaho and Utah just laugh since it would take at least 3 feet of snow to cancel school and the roads would never be plowed. It was a fun weekend though and think Kevin had a little to much fun driving around in the snow.

Check out all this snow! Can you beleive how deep it is. ugh!
