Snowmageddon: Part 2

We made it through the night, and managed to keep power, thank goodness.  I woke up a few times here and there, weather it was from little people crawling into my bed, or the whistling of the wind whipping around snow outside. 

Waking up in the morning, it was snowing sideways.... and didn't look to be slowing down any time soon!  The kids wanted to go outside immediately.  Dressing each kid in their snow gettup takes longer than the time they want to be outside, and by the time I get through all three of them I already want to collapse just from that!  
Zoë had more fun with her snowshoes, excited she was taller than the mailbox!
 Vince enjoyed scaling the snow drifts as well
time to tackle the driveway....thank God for snow blowers, although they are NOT EASY to push around

 
 And.... after literally 9 hours of shoveling and snow blowing, my driveway was functional again

And now I'm physically and mentally exhausted.  And seeing that it's still snowing, and that the driveway is covered again... I'm sobbing!
We did manage to get some warm snuggles while inside the house today.
