Wow, we headed to my parents house and for the first time in 40 years there was a blizzard. Nice, so the girls had so much fun in the snow, it was awesome, cold... but awesome. Here are some pics to share.
So of course we didn't plan for snow, or in this case a blizzard, and had to run to walmart, in the blizzard I might add, and grab some "snow" gear, thank goodness for walmart, there goes this month's budget...
We did try the local Goodwill and found some boots for S, but she was the only one that benefited from that store.
I decided to shovel the driveway because we had to push the car to get it in and I wasn't sure when the snow was going to melt and I didn't want my parentals to have to face that by themselves...so at first we were just clearing, but when we came accross the 2inch thick slabs of ice I just couldn't cast them off, we had to do something with them.
So it started as a small little igloo for one person maybe...then it expanded in to a princess ice castle, just about 4X8 ish. Cousin C and Papa even got in on the building. Anyway, it was fun and we got the driveway cleared which made for easy loading the next morning.
The thought did cross my mind that we could shape the snow on the outside of the walls to look like stones, and had it been at our house, I might have actually gone there, but it wasn't and we were leaving the next morning so...
