Snow!!

 They predicted anywhere from 3 to 6 inches of snow. We definitely hit that mark plus some. By Friday evening spots in the front yard showed  91.2 inches, some 10 inches and a few on the side where it drifted nearly 12 inches of the lovely white stuff.
  Coming home from work Friday night was a bear. No lanes, not even on the main highway, completely rutted and slushed in some spots, solid ice in others. I had to use 4 wheel drive to pull the hill before our drive and then to ease into our drive. Our lovely driveway goes uphill, turns to the left then comes out on the side of a hill! Yeah fun when roads are nasty. After getting home, warming up for a bit Kaya begged for "one more time" in the snow. She had a ball. Steve said she had already been out 2 times before I got home from work. I got a call Friday morning at work saying "Mamma, it snoooooweed!! Daddy is going to bundle me up and we are going to go outside..after he makes a pot of hot chocolate!!" :) Made my day to hear her so excited.
  Saturday , today, has been no extra snow but frigid cold. Temp combined with clear skies, snow and a wind chill factor made it feel as if it was 0 to -4 later in the evening. We let Kaya go sledding before it got too cold and she had a ball. Didn't like that we only let her make a few trips today but even though she was bundled...hat, gloves, shirt, thermal shirt, zip up,coat, pants, thermal pants, undies and socks lol, it was still cold!
   

  All in all a fun day. Wrapped up the evening by fixing a homemade apple crisp. Our apple order came in this week and Kaya loves apples period. She asked that we have "banilla ice cream" on top lol so we did. Love the mix of crisp topping with the sweet apples and melty ice cream :)
