It was bound to come....

Well, it's taken a while, but the snow has finally found it's way to Vernal! We got a little last week, but it wasn't much and didn't stay around for long. Well, this morning we woke up to lots of snow and it kept on coming all day long! We had big, white, thick, fluffy snowflakes and it was quite relaxing to watch it out the window all day long. Then the snowplow had to come along...whenever the snow plow comes down our street, he adds about 3 feet of snow all along the entrance to our driveway and puts huge piles of snow at the end of the street, which is right in front of our house! That's what you get for living on a dead end I guess, but it is so irritating, especially since we have to make sure the road in front of our mailbox is clear so our mail can be delivered.
Since Jason works late, the snow is usually frozen by the time he gets off, so there isn't much you can do by that point, and also, when the snow plow comes and pushes all that snow in front of our driveway, I always worry he won't be able to get in and out of our driveway with our old Geo, so once Kaysen went down for his nap, I took Jaylee and Bretten out to play in the snow while I shoveled the road for a few hours....I didn't even get to the driveway...just cleared the road in front of our mailbox and driveway so we could actually get in and out. Then to my great surprise, a very nice gentleman (I don't even know who he was), having fun in his little tractor came down the street and pulled up in my driveway and cleared all the snow and then went down in front of the road where I had been slaving away and pushed all that snow to the very end of the street! What a lifesaver! I think if I'd been out there any longer, I would've put myself into labor, so I was very grateful! I'm glad there are still some nice thoughtful people in the world!
Anyways, the kids had a lot of fun playing in the snow and I had fun watching them while I got in a good workout!
