Snow-maggeton 2019

We have had quite the winter here in KC! Like record breaking winter and gosh darn it it makes my heart SO happy!!!! This particular storm was magical! It dumped 12" and it was wet and sticky and covered everything!!

Sprout sure loves his Daddy!

I feel like the winter fairy in the Nutcracker! 

Heavy snow does come with challenges. Our tree branch was resting on our power line so Jakob went out to cut it down.

Much better!! Part of our ward went without power for 4 days!! 

When you're snowed in you play a lot of games!!

Then I looked at our thermostat and noticed.. it's dead. It was strange because the power to the house was still on. I notified Jakob and we realized that the furnace was out. That's right... our brand new furnace. It was a chilly day and a chilly night. Thankfully we had power still so we did a good deal of baking and bundled up nice and warm. the next day during sacrament meeting, Jakob went home so the furnace people could come out. It was a short in something or other and was easily fixed thank goodness!

 Neighbors hose down the road!!!

Two days after they removed the tree. Talk about BLESSED! That could have been a much worse story. They did end up replacing shingles. We had so much fun in the snow but that's another post!!
