Blizzard #2

There was a lot of anticipation for the 2nd Blizzard in a week to hit. I was looking forward to it, only because I don't have to travel in it. And I enjoy playing in the snow with Braxton and I wanted to build another snow man. Also part of me was in denial. There is no way we were going to get another big snowfall in one winter when we had gone so long with very little snow each winter. I was wrong.....

Rick was asked to spend Tuesday night at work so they could get a jump start on the snow removal and work through the night so they did not get behind. It was double time and we could sure use the money. Well, he was there for 3 days straight. Due to the state of emergency he could not come home even if he wanted to. And they still had lots of work to do at the school. I missed him, Braxton missed him. There is nothing like being snowed in with 2 kids and missing their Daddy. When he finally did get home he was EXHAUSTED! He looked like hell. He got very little sleep while he was there, and he worked his butt to the bone. So I couldn't complain when he wanted to get some sleep. And to top it all off, he had to go in at 3am the next day. SO I tried to be quiet and keep the kids quiet while he slept. He did get up to eat dinner and then laid back down. He took Brooklyn so I could eat dinner and they were both asleep before I knew it.

I took advantage of the moment. LOL

So once things got back to normal a little I took Braxton outside to play in the snow. I tried to build another snowman, but the snow was really hard and I could only get these 2 little guys. 

But Braxton had fun throwing himself in the snow and trying to make snow angels.
