It was supposed to start on Monday around 4pm...however it started about 11:30am...I had brought Ella to the sitters that morning...and was at work...well we were all keeping a close eye on the weather....and sure enough...it started to flurry...and then it started coming down fast...I went right to the manager and asked if I could leave...we had already discussed that I had a ways to drive...as I had to pick Ella up and then head home...it took me about 1.5 hours to get home. The snow came down...and came down...and came down....I think we ended up with about 8 inches...Ella couldn't wait to get out in it (yay!)
We didn't have snow toys...so we brought out some beach toys! :) I put her to work...she helped me brush off the cars...while I did the shoveling...we were outside for about 4 hours total on Tuesday. We stayed home on Tuesday...my office closed and of course there was no school. At 7am Ella was already asking to go outside! I made her wait until 8am...and we went out 8-10....and then in the afternoon from 3:15-5:15.
Wednesday the school was closed...but I was able to bring Ella to the sitters so I could go to work. The side roads were horrible but the main roads were good...thank goodness we still have the Xterra! I needed that 4wheel drive!
Today is Saturday...and guess what...2-5 more inches of snow/sleet today....eeewww! And we've got about 3 inches of snow so far...
Ella was up this morning at 5:30am....why?? I got up and went in her room and told her it was NOT time to get up...she said, "Mama I just wanted a hug." My eyes were half open...but I gave her a big hug...and put her back into bed! I went back to bed and did get to sleep a little bit...and she was up at 6:45...and ready for breakfast!
We did some art projects this morning...
We've had a busy few hours this morning...who knows what else this afternoon will bring...!
