blizzard of 2011

everyone was frantically shopping yesterday as i made my usual monday afternoon grocery shopping trip. i even saw a picture of all the bread on the shelves....gone!! of course with all the predictions, we thought we could get up to 14" of snow...yipes!


so far maybe 4-5 inches. i know that we are supposed to get some more tonight and into tomorrow a little bit, but i am convinced that branson has a bubble surrounding it and we don't usually get all the snow that everyone else around us gets.

it was nice though, eric and i got a snow day together...so we decided to be productive. i gave him a much needed haircut.




i'll be honest, i like his hair a little longer, but he likes me to chop it as short as posible so i won't have to give him another haircut so soon. oh well, that's the way it goes, i guess.





after the haircut, we watched singing in the rain. i know i said that we decided to be productive, but you have to do a little something fun on a day when you don't HAVE to do anything.





i finally convinced myself to go out and take a few pictures of the blizzard. you know i even heard that this storm is supposedly going to affect 1/3 of america...crazy, huh!

well, it was gorgeous, but extremely windy!



it was fun to get out in the blowing snow for about 10 minutes...but my fingers about froze off very quickly so we went back inside...

and obviously...come rain, come shine, come sleet, come snow....the mail must go through!! good for them!!



and as much as i wanted to get some cute pictures of gemma in the snow...i refrained and made a makeshift snow scene on the couch!!



our sweet little snow bunny

I think she looks a lot happier than she would be if she was really in the snow. :)
