Snow Storm of January 10, 2011

I can't believe how much snow we got last night and today! I was like a kid again, so excited to get out in the snow and play. The State has been shut down because of the snow and ice. I know you are asking what the heck am I wearing, I am just going to say it I don't care, I just wanted to get outside, so there. I'm a kid remember? The snow came down like confectioner sugar, that consistency. It was hard making a snowman with this kind of snow. I'm not complaining you know, its just I wanted to make this huge snowman and all I could do is a mini me! People abandoned their cars on the highway's last night and we have a state of an emergency. They asked everyone to stay home and not to get out on the roads. Well, if you know me that's not going to fly, so what did we do? You got it, we jumped in the truck and went down the road and did donuts in an open parking lot. It was so much fun! The fire place has been going all day and night. We had leftovers for lunch today. We had slow roasted pot roast that I cooked in a whole bottle of Burgundy Wine. Let me tell you that was one tasty meal. For dinner we had slow cooked Country Pork Chops, cooked in barbecue sauce, Jasmine Rice with homemade French Bread. Yummy!
The dogs loved peeing and playing in the snow. I could hear the children down the road laughing and playing in the snow, they were sledding down our road which has a fantastic slope for sledding. We are going to be in this cooling trend for the next week and we will not be out of the low 30s for awhile. The roads are very icy and dangerous to drive on.
