January Blizzard

Yesterday we had our first blizzard of the season; we got a total of 14 inches (probably more since there was a lot of wind shifting the snow). Cameron couldn't go to work because the Air Force base was closed therefore he got to stay home with his girls and do some shoveling. It snowed all day and the heavy snow was in the morning. By the time we woke up everything was white. Cameron started shoveling the snow around 10 AM and he made a path in the driveway so that Atenas could go out into the road and do her business. After a while I took over the shoveling and Cameron took over Emma. I really enjoy shoveling, it is a great workout but yesterday at the end of the day we were all exhausted!

We have always said that one of the best things of living in this house is having great neighbors. Yesterday we were helping each other out shoveling our driveways while our dogs were running lose and enjoying the snow. Unfortunately since it snowed all day, Emma couldn't go outside to experience her first blizzard.



First thing in the morning, Cameron had to dig a path throught the driveway for Atenas:
I was responsible for clearing our entry way. Notice that the snow almost reaches the second step:
