Snow Days

Virginia Beach almost never gets snow. The last real snow that we had (meaning that it stuck and was more than 1/2 inch) was in 2004. But really early Saturday morning it started snowing and it kept snowing and snowing and snowing until we had around 8 or 9 inches! Mitchell had to work anyways (he was sick, too), but nothing bad happened even though he was driving a lot. All but Sacrament Meeting was cancelled on Sunday, but we didn't go because Mitchell was still sick and I didn't want to drive in the snow. School was cancelled on Monday, too. There's still snow on the ground, but it's finally starting to melt. I was reading a story in the newspaper about how the Boardwalk was plowed before any of the streets were. That's just plain stupid. I'm not going to say anything more about that because I'll get annoyed. We bundled Joseph up really well on Saturday afternoon and took him out to play for a few minutes. He loved it. He also loved eating it. Here's some pictures and a couple videos.
