Snow Day

It snowed…again.
Classes at OSU were canceled
so TJ stayed home with me and Riker.
Since all this snow is completely foreign to us desert dwellers,
we ventured outside (briefly) to check it out.

(Ignore how awesome I look…makeup hasn’t been high on my priority list these days.) angel

While Riker was napping inside our warm house, I made TJ jump into the snow to make a snow angel.

Check out these deadly looking icicles…
luckily these aren’t hanging above our door.
I would fear for my life each time I walked out the door.

Each time the plows come to clear our parking lot, the snow gets pushed into one big pile.
TJ climbed to the top and was hoping to jump into a fluffy pile of snow…
but there is so much snow that is just completely solid.

The ten minutes we spent outside in the snow was enough for us.
Now we are ready for it to all go away.
If I don’t see some sunshine soon, I might go insane.

That snow day was the BEST! I wish there was another one today but no such luck!

We didn't even go outside, so I'm proud of you!

Oh, and I DO fear for my life every time I go outside due to those "ice spears."

I feel bad for you. I don't know what I would do if I couldn't go outside. And don't worry about makeup. I haven't worn foundation (all I wear is blush, eyeliner, and mascara...takes 2 minutes to apply) for hmmm....5 months now? And honestly, now that my naked face skin sees the light of day it looks so much better! I should have done this a long time ago!
