Snow Sunday

So we had quite an adventure on Sunday. The power went out at 10:15 am and it took until 4:30 pm to come back on. We were just about to leave for a hotel because it was getting dark and it was 50 degrees in the house when it came back on. We had at least 5" of snow and here they don't plow side streets. To add to the adventure P's mom was flying in so we had to try to figure out how to get her to our house. She took the train and it took her 2.5 hours (usually a 1 hour ride). So we packed up in the car to get her - about 8 blocks and fishtailed along the way (yes, we had chains on). The car was the warmest part so we were all going! Anyways, the first two hours of this adventures were fun but then it got kind of crazy by adding a newborn in the mix. We have two days of super low temperatures - 12 degrees tonight followed by 3 more days of possible snow. So hopefully our heater which has topped out at 64 degrees will be able to keep up.
