Winter Storm Story

Much like everyone else , we got a lot of snow here. The kids were off school for 2 days and I also happened to have 4 days off this week. It was really nice to just lay around and relax with the kids. The first day we spent the morning watching old home videos of them when they were little, made lunch, and took naps!
That evening I was taking the recycles out to the half finished addition where we have the recycle box kept and to my surprise found a bat flying around. Thankfully we still have a door to close off that area, so I was able to keep him(or her) out of the house. I  walked the dogs to the back yard because they won't use the bathroom while they are on a leash, and I opened the door to the backroom hoping the bat would fly out during the blizzard!
The next morning we woke up to some major snow drifts in the drive way, which meant that I had to move it all before we could go anywhere. So we bundled up and went at it! I can say I was never so happy that Eli bought that snow blower last year. Some of the drifts were taller than Nik! The kids got some play time in and had some fun jumping into the drifts, and the helped shovel a little. After 3 hours of moving snow I was finally able to at least get the car out of the garage and clear the neighbor ladies driveway. The rest of the day we spent studying for the upcoming ITBS at school!
The kids are back to school today and I don't know if the bat is still hanging around, but at least I can't see it!
