"Snowmageddon:" President Obama's name for the mondo- HUGE blizzard that hit the mid-atlantic states this weekend.
Here in Pittsburgh, we didn't escape the record breaking snowfall! Poor Bryce had to report into work this morning and wasn't even sure if he could make it.
Of course, we both secretly hoped the roads would prove too treacherous and snow-laden to make the drive possible. Unluckily, Bryce is way too practiced at driving in the snow and a mere 17" of snowfall can't stand in his way. BLAST IT!!!
You can see in the picture, the trail he had to dig just to get to the car. We were among the few crazies who braved the storm last night to do a little grocery shopping.
Being out on a night when everyone else is staying home=no close parking.
The snow bank is so high that hanging out on the sidewalk is almost like being in a snow fort! Well...when you're Isaac's size.
The kids across the street built an awesome snow fort/tunnel! It brings back so many good memories. Am I too big to ask them if I could crawl in it? I so want to.

Isaac's first time playing in the snow was with his friend Andrew and when he looked out the window this morning and saw the fluffy white fun, the first thing he said was,
"Go Andrew's house.
GO ANDREW's HOUSE!"
It was a little too snowy to make it to Andrew's house but we did play outside and he did had fun!

The sun came out in the afternoon and it was gorgeous outside!!! Isaac and I took a walk around the block and ran into so many people out enjoying the sunny winter wonderland.
Everyone was so happy and excited and I was reminded of one of the reasons we love living here in Pittsburgh--our neighborhood is so friendly! What a fun day!
What's the perfect way to end an afternoon in the snow?
Drinking a delicious cup of hot cocoa, of course!
I love Isaac's chocolate mustache in this picture!
