snow day 2: snowballs for dummies

So i realize how much i dont like not having the freedom to move around. My car/tires are in no shape for driving and so we will hunker down here. The kids and I did go out for a walk to the store today, it was beautiful! Note the bullseye from a snowball on Chris' back... it wasn't me.

There's no real end in sight to the "arctic blast" tonight... school has already been cancelled for Tuesday and the weekend looks like it's going to be dicey. Mike and Chris took the bus to the tire shop today to buy chains for the company van and he'll try and make his way to work tomorrow, he's planning to stay in Salem rather than commute back and forth, for a few days at least. I'm not crazy about this idea, but apparently once you get out of our neighborhood real life goes on...

I took this video on the way to the store today... if you know my kids, it's pretty spot on and priceless... or maybe that's just their moms opinion...
we're calling it... snowball making for dummies


Gotta admit though, it is beautiful...
