Snowy weekend

We've had a very snowy weekend. It started snowing again on Saturday afternoon and pretty much hasn't stopped. We were planning to go to a party on Saturday night. We took Kaylin to Eric's parents house early and brought extra clothes in case we ended up staying overnight. The hills to their house weren't great, so we stayed there and skipped the party. Eric's sister and brother-in-law came into town earlier on Saturday, so we had a big party. We brought some pizza and a movie and had a great time. Church on Sunday was cancelled, so we went sledding. Here is Kaylin's first (and only) run.
She went down the hill with Grammy on a garbage can lid. She wasn't a fan of sledding or the snow. Here she is with Uncle Parker, obviously not enjoying the snow:

Here are Kaylin, Parker, Carly, and Eric:

Sunday evening we headed home. The hills weren't too bad, but our driveway was a joke. We nearly got stuck going from the street into our driveway. It took quite a few tries to get into the driveway. Then we got stuck in the driveway. Eric and I had to shovel our way out. Our neighbor came out to help which was really nice. He didn't have a shovel, so he took mine and I got to sit in the warm car with Kaylin. The reason our driveway was so bad was because of the wind. Parts of our driveway had no snow (just ice) and other parts had three feet! After we put Kaylin to bed Eric and I went back outside and shoveled part of the driveway so he hopefully won't have as much work to do in the morning. I'd prefer it if he stays at home, but they missed a day last week and Eric is set on getting to the office. We'll see how the snow is tomorrow.

Maybe she didn't like sledding because she was on a garbage can lid and not a real sled. :)

We're glad to see you're enjoying your snow though, we'll be thinking of you while we're enjoying a nice Christmas in the 70's.
