Thank Goodness for Spring ?

It's been Spring for how many days? 

Could have fooled me! 

Two days ago,

we had the worst snowstorm that Mark and I can remember. 

The eye of the storm was directly over us

and it was madness. 

I don't usually get nervous during storms,

but I was nervous this time.

I thought that the windows in our house might blow in. 

I'm not sure if I was actually worried about damage to the house

and the expense that would cause,

or if I was just worried about how to keep my girls safe

if that actually did happen.

Either way,

it was a scary night!

I'm SO thankful I didn't have to worry 

about going into labour on top of it! ;-)

They say there is a silver lining to everything,

and they're right.

(In this case anyway!)

The next day,

after the wind died down,

Piper and I had a great time out on our patio.

I shoveled snow for more than an hour,

which will help to burn off some of the 50 pounds that I still have to lose

(thank you Elliotte)

and Piper had a wonderful time playing in the snow

and sliding down her slide!

So what if we don't have a Spring.

I'm ready to skip it altogether and jump right into Summer!

Blue wanted to go outside... so we opened the door!

Piper thought it was super cool!

This is FUN mom!

But this is MORE fun!

Weeeeeeeeeee!!!

And a certain someone could care less about the snow!
