Let it snow...

Well, it has been snowing for about 21 hours now and I am good and stir-crazy. I'd say we easily have a good 15-20 inches on the ground by now. I went outside to snap a few pictures before the light was all gone and the snow easily came up to the middle of my shins.

Here are a few pictures of our development from this afternoon.

my car- you can hardly see it!

***UPDATE***

So last night at around 7 PM, the snow began to taper off and we started to dig out the cars. It was quite a task and we lasted a few hours before we were exhausted and gave up.

In the morning, we started to dig out again, but the condo association brought in a plow and a bobcat to clear away the remaining snow.

After we had cleared off the snow from the top and behind the cars (no easy feat) all we had to do was back out of our spots and the bobcat obliterated any remaining snow. Lemme tell you, it was worth every single penny in condo fees we've paid all year!

the snow is practically up to my hips!


Finally- the cars emerge. Great work David!

After coming back inside, we warmed up with some delicious Williams Sonoma hot chocolate. My favorite!


It takes a little while to prepare, but is sooooo worth it!

So we survived Snowpocalypse 2009 relatively unscathed. We spent a lot of time by the fireplace watching tv and catching up on household chores. It was kind of nice. (Says the girl who took photos while her husband shoveled)
