Snow days

This winter has been so nuts. There has been two times now that it has snowed like six inches. I can't remember in my whole life of living in oregon that happening and now it has happened twice in the same winter! Global warming people, it's real! Anyway..I always remember growing up having a "snow day" where maybe there was like half and inch and school got canceled but nothing like this 

This is serious business. You literally had to have chains to drive. This is Paige's second snow storm in her six month life, that just blows my mind. It was fun taking pictures with Paige in the snow but I think she could care less. By the time she can play outside and if we are still in Oregon I have a feeling there will be more snow days ahead. Driving to work was scary, I've never driven in the snow but the worst part was the round about on the way. A round a bout it a bad idea on a normal day, now add like 5 inches of snow and go at it. STRESSFUL! 

This last snow session came with some freezing rain, I've heard of freezing rain in the forecast before but this was serious, the snow was now covered in like two inches of ice.

We have a huge old tree in our front yard that didn't make it 

This was one of the scariest things that has happened to me. Being at home alone with the baby and hearing a 50 foot tree come crashing down is flipping scary! Hearing trees snap outside is no fun. The snow has been gone for about a week now and there are still trees down left and right in the park by our house. 

I have a feeling this May not be the last snow for the year, I sure hope it is though. Snow was fun when your little but, like other things, it's not fun when your an adult! 

Blazer loved exploring out in the snow. 

Hears to no more snow!
