Snowpocalypse, Day 2

On the 2nd day of the Blizzard, we awoke to a winter wonderland. Our backyard had 2 feet of snow, with drifts that were taller than Rory.
Rory was totally prepared for her second day in the snow, with mittens that had baggies that had been taped down by her Daddy.
Aven was once again bundled in her cute pink outfit ... warm, but barely mobile.
And the big dig began! We shoveled paths to our car and street.
While Rory and Aven played in the snow.
Even Pippin decided to venture out into the snow, although only for a few minutes.
Late Friday night, Mommy and Daddy were driving home from their holiday party, and the streets were already getting pretty slick. Confronted with this hill, our Mazda could not get us the final three blocks home. Fortunately, Mommy had brought her hiking boots (she had learned her lesson at 16 when a blizzard had forced her to walk 2 miles), and we got home with no further incident.
Rory and her Daddy began digging the poor Mazda out from under the snow, but it will probably be a few more days before we can get the car back on the road!
