Today we got over a foot and a half of snow here in DC! The blizzard was ranked in the top ten snow storms in DC history! The city has been almost completely shut down and church has even been canceled, we don't normally get snow like this. My snow day consisted of sleeping in and then eating a delicious french toast breakfast with my roo
mmates, then Jenny and I ventured out into the snow to walk to the grocery store (the roads were far too icy to drive on). We really didn't need anything at the store but it was a great excuse to go out and experience the snow first hand. After we got back from the store we made snow angels, threw snowballs at our neighbors doors, and got into snowball fights. It was great fun!!! The snow was up to my knees out there! Later in the afternoon I went with some friends to see the movie, "
Invictus". Due to the snow, we had to walk about half a mile to the movie theater in a foot and a half of snow, I wished that I would have had my snowshoes for that treck. This was the first movie that I have been to since June and I thought it was really good. After the movie was over we went back out into the
snow ready to trudge our way back
when we came across a bus that was stuck in the snow. We tried everything we could think of to get it unstuck but alas, we failed, it was just to icy. Once my neighbors and I made it back home from the theater I went over to their house and we had some hot chocolate to warm us back up. All in all is was a fabulous day!!!

That is indeed a wonderful day! totally reminds me of our one snow day in logan...the night we went to your house and had scones and I put the pistachio pudding on my scone 'cause I thought that was what it was for. Than waking up the next day to 2 ft....it was a beautiful thing. Glad you had fun!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe all that snow Jes. My kiddos would have loved to make a snow angel in that. Looks like you're having lots of fun in D.C.
