Snowed In


Hannah lets loose in the snow on Thursday night.
We woke up this morning to snowstorm number 2 hitting us hard. There were already about four or five inches of snow on the ground when I rolled out of bed at 7:30. The plows were nowhere to be seen, so we decided to blow off church and I made pancakes for the girls. Then we went out and started shoveling. By that point, the snow was mixing with sleet and the winds were whipping it all around. Nobody else on our street was shoveling at that point. When I finished up, the plow showed up and soon our neighbors were out clearing their driveways.

We stayed in all day, playing games and watching the Pats beat the Jets, albeit not by the huge margin we all expected. The weather was pretty nasty in Foxboro, with rain and wind wreaking havoc on the passing game. As a result, the Pats ran the ball much more than they usually do and won 20-10. They're now 14-0 on the season and next week take on the Dolphins, who won their first game of the season today.
