Snow Day

Or at least it was supposed to be. We broke a record yesterday and today...the most snowfall in a 24 hour period. I didn't actually hear how much we got, but it was a lot. The whole city was shut down. Unfortunately, I didn't know what to do this morning and I actually went in to work. We left the house at 6am, made it to daycare by 7:15 and I actually got to work by 8 (it only took me an hour longer than my normal commute). Come to find out, I didn't have to show up at all. Our office was closed. We have a little over 100 employees and 17 of us showed up. Really, we do need a better system to let us know when the office is closed. I actually worked until 2pm and then headed home. The roads are horrible. It did stop snowing around 3pm, but it just started up again, so maybe tomorrow will be a snow day :-)

Emma actually enjoyed the snow for a little bit.

Then she got her jeans all snowy and didn't like that much at all.

Olivia wasn't impressed...she was looking at me as if she was saying "put the camera away Mom, I'm cold and I would like to go inside!" I really didn't make them stand out there too long...I just wanted to give you an idea of the amount of snow. The piles next to them are from the actual snow, not piled with a shovel...that is how much snow is on the ground. Downtown is just as bad too...they actually shut down the malls and the hospital announced they were cancelling all surgeries unless it was a necessity to save a life...now that's a lot of snow!
