Let there be snow....and LOTS of it

Today was my first OFFICIAL snow day. There was tons of snow on the ground, and it was actualy snowing for most, if not all of the day. It was quite an experience. James and I went outside to look at the snow and play with Tilly....so I took plenty of pictures. You can actually see the snow falling in the pictures. Take a look....







James cooking a bit more. we had hamburgers, chips, coleslaw, and beetroot salad. yummmmy.


That's where the pictures end I'm afraid. I took a little hour-ish nap sometime during the day. We watched Secret Window starring Johnny Depp. We also had to go out tonight to get some ibprofen for the family. I'm starting to feel scratchyness in my throat and Alice is still sick, everyone else just has a mild cough. Hopefully popping ibprofen like candy will help the infection, if it is one, will go away.



No pictures, but on the way home James and I almost got stuck on a hill going back to his house. There are 3 big bends in the road and hills slowly inclining between each bend. We made it round the first bend, but then got stuck half way up the hill because James' car couldn't make it at the slow speed we were crawling(driving in snow is not fun). So we reversed it back down the hill to the bend so we could turn around and go back down the hill and just stay at the hotel,....then i suggested we take a 'running start' from the bottem of that section and try to floor it up the hill. Well, it worked and we finally made it back home after nearly 1 hour and 1/2 when really town is only a 10-20 min back drive.
