Eeeek! More snow coming!

We're under a Winter Storm Warning until Friday evening here in the Madison area. 5 to 9 inches are expected.

The following is an excerpt from an email I just sent to a friend: "I'm tempted not to look at the snow -- maybe I'll just close our blinds, turn up the heat and we'll sit in our shorts and t-shirts and play games and eat popsicles. And if anybody says the "s-word" (snow), they have to watch one of my musicals with me while I sing LOUDLY to every song!!! HA! HA HA!!! :) Just kidding, of course. Hehehe.... With our crazy weather it feels good to have a sense of humor about it."

Gotta go and feed my ever-growing, constantly hungry kiddos!

Isaac's cute writing and more snow...

Isaac brought this home from school recently. It says, "I can kook (cook). I can red (read). I can slep (sleep). It just makes me smile.

We're getting another major ice and snow storm today. Shane found 1/4 inch of ice on our driveway this morning. Now we're getting something like 5 to 14 inches on top of the ice and on top of the snow that's already on the ground from the last snowstorm just a few days ago. Oy! Driving has been a challenge for me in our sedan. I can hardly see around the snowbanks at intersections. With this additional snowfall, it's going to be even more difficult.

Church is cancelled today, so we're staying put. I made chili for lunch. It seemed like the perfect comfort food when you're snowed in. It doesn't do much for the cabin fever we're all experiencing, though. So... Shane and I are thinking of taking the kids to an indoor waterpark in the Wisconsin Dells, which is about an hour from here. Isaac is off of school on Friday and I don't have to babysit, so Lord willing, that's when we'd go.

I'll take some outside pictures when the snowstorm is over so you can see what it's like up here in Winter Wonderland.
