I survived 3 feet of white stuff

Last week, we were all busy bee's at work when I decided to routinely check the weather. When I do this during the winter, I usually check a variety of places just to make myself depressed. I always check Florida first, then it's usually Texas, Bermuda, and to make myself feel a liiiiittle better, I check Canada.

On this particular day, I see something that says BLIZZID!! A blizzy is coming, a blizzy is coming; and it could produce record snowfall. At this point, everyone's all psshhh whatever, we hear this crap all the time and then get absolutely nothing. Fast forward to Friday night into Saturday afternoon and we wake up to this.

That would be the street where our apartment is. Covered with THREE FEET OF SNOW!!

Friday night around 10pm, the lights started to flicker

Kurt and I looked at each other and were all No....Don't....Please Don't..

At 10:30, lights out, power out, heat OUT, Kurt and Erica OUT!

We woke up to a 50 degree apartment and frozen nips---and not the alcoholic ones 

My parents house still had power, so the plan was to be rescued by mama and sissy

Dad chose the best weekend to go away ice fishing with friends

My mom disagreed...

We had to wait a bit for them to shovel themselves, so Kurt had a genius idea

"If we heat pots of boiling water, it will heat the kitchen....and us"

So we did...

We had to hike down the street for my mom and sister to pick us up,

....but we finally made it to my parent's house 

We ate grilled cheese

Drank hot cocoa

Drank cran vods

Ate pizza

Played Wii

Built a fort.

Heart=Happy

I love snow.

I really do

I mean, living in New England you sorta have to

Except when shoveling you hurts my back like a lil bishy.

So, snow, you are beautiful, and feel free to come by anytime!

How was your weekend!?
