    OK, had to share...a little piece of my P365 from today, a time lapse from 9 am to 9 pm. I put the yardstick in the lawn early this morning so I could have a point reference. Nerdy, I know. LOL

    Well, we had some snow and a little wind, but nothing as impressive as I was hoping for. It was bizarre driving to work yesterday though, there was ZERO traffic. Ok, so I live in a small town anyway, but we have a couple big corporations (one of which in the Whirlpool headquarters) so the main road has a lot of cars in the morning... but yesterday, nobody even tried to go to work. It was weird! The kids had a snow day though so they were happy. :)

    We got over two feet of snow in Chicago. The kiddos have had two snow days in a row. I've been sick so I haven't taken any pictures but I'm thinking of bundling up the kiddos and taking some photos of them from the front doorstep.

    whoa carly, I think you got more than we did. I let the kiddos out to play in it for 30 minutes and the funny thing is that the snow is so thick they can just step over it and they don't sink down much.
