It's a blizzard out there!

It has been snowing non stop here in Spokane since 7am on Wednesday. We have around 18 inches at our house. Our street is not on the plow list at this point and the buses are barely running in Spokane. My office is closed and kindercare just called to say they closed! That never happens. It is pretty chilly here.

Our neighbors have a cover that goes over their hot tub, that collapsed this morning. We have shoveled our driveway, sidewalk and front path multiple times. Justin has decided a snowblower may be in our future.

We had to drive my car to a main street for Justin to catch the bus. (His work is open and they called him in early because someone else couldn't make it...) Nice!

So Caden & I are watching Frosty the snowman and Elmo's Christmas. We will not be leaving the house for the rest of the day. When we drove Justin to the bus, we got stuck less than 15 feet from our house. Justin shoveled us out and we were on our way.

I hope to put up some pictures soon. :)

I hate Justin's work right now. Do they really think anyone is going out to eat today?

I just saw on the news that we broke a record for most snow in a 24 hour period (17 inches, the old record was 13).

That's a lot of snow. Hope he can get home. If he can't catch a bus he should make his boss come pick him up and take him home.
