Winter storm of 2013

Just before Christmas we had the first (of many it seems this winter) snow storm of the season. The boys have always been excited about the snow, Eric and myself…not so much. 
With this particular storm (if I am remembering right) started off earlier on a Thursday morning. It started out as sleet and/or freezing rain and then to snow. School was cancelled, for the rest of the week. 
After about 1/4 inch of ice, came the snow. It seems that the amounts varied but I think it was bout 5 inches (maybe more). That afternoon everything started to close, and not just schools but just about every business and church related activities. 
It was nice and surprising that Toyota cancelled their shift as well, so we were able to have Daddy home and I didn't have to worry about him driving in this. The snow started to taper off in the evening and we did venture outside to clean things up a bit, and the boys were dying to play in the snow. Being eight months pregnant my help was limited, but I did manage to clean off the cars and take some pictures.
