It was absolutely insane! We got something like 6-8 inches of snow here in Western Maryland! I snapped some photos to share the craziness. And let me say that snow and leaves still on trees do not mix well… the branches were so heavy with snow. We even lost a tree! That wasn’t the only thing we lost…. POWER. Our power went out yesterday before lunch. I cooked grilled cheese for the kids for dinner on the grill and even made italian wedding soup on the grill! After dinner, we all gathered around the fire and played trouble and connect 4. And we all went to bed early…. the kids at 7:15, and I was in bed at 8:45!!! It was so nice, honestly! The power kicked back on around midnight and I thought we were in the clear… until I was in the shower around 9:30 am this morning and the power went out. We are on well water, so I hurried to wash my hair and get out! My hair is clean but my legs are hairy. Oh well. Anyhow, the power finally came back on around 5:45 pm. Yay! In the meantime I painted the guest room trim and walls, and the kids went to a local church Halloween event with neighbors. Crazy, busy, snowy weekend here!
