Let it snow!

Yeah, it snowed! We woke up Sunday to snow everywhere. I get a little excited when I see snow, so we didn't waste a minute getting outside to play in it. We didn't even bother to brush our teeth or take off our pajamas. We just put on our snow clothes and went out. It snowed all day, so there ended up being a lot more snow that in these pictures (which were taken really early in the morning). Church was canceled, which I found funny because the entire ward lived within a 2 mile radius and the building is just down the street. Both Jefferson's and Shawn's schools were closed today.
Reagan wasn't a big fan of the weather. It was too windy for her, so Shawn took her inside. The boys and I headed off to the park. By the way, slides are totally fun in the snow. The boys slid down so fast they flew off the bottom, they loved it!

Not everything about the snow was fun. A couple days before the storm, Shawn called his old work and asked them to order a set of tire chains for him. We need chains to be safe on our trip back to California this Wednesday night. So, he went in to pick them up and they hadn't gotten there yet. He said he would come back to get them and asked them to hold them for him. So, he calls today to see if they are there and guess what... they've sold them! Not only that, but EVERY SINGLE auto parts store in the area and surrounding has sold their chains. We could order them from a store further away, but that could take 1-2 weeks (we need to get to California sooner than that!). Napa was getting another shipment today. Shawn calls when they said they were coming in and sure enough, they have ONE set. They don't hold items, so Shawn drives 15 minutes and in the meantime they have sold it. So, we were left with only one thing to do.... My mom bought a set in Placerville and sent it UPS 2 day delivery. So, as soon as our chains get here, we'll be on our way home.
