Steve's Birthday and Snow!

Steve's birthday was this past Saturday, January 30. Since it fell on a weekend, we had big plans for a night out and Dad and Donna were going to come up for the night to watch Ella for us. Well....the best laid plans, right?

It started snowing on Friday night and by the time we went to bed there was about an inch or so on the ground and when we woke up on Saturday morning there were about 4 inches. It was sleeting by then and sleeted most of the day so the roads were really bad. This is a big deal around here!

Ella couldn't wait to get outside and check out the snow first thing Saturday morning























And here are some videos that Steve put together of Ella's adventures in the snow!

Even though it was not how we expected to spend Steve's birthday, we had a really nice day and spent lots of time with just the 3 of us. Church was canceled on Sunday and we didn't leave the house once the whole weekend, we were snowed in!!
