Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland...

Last week it snowed here in Shingle Springs and all the way down to some parts of the Bay Area!! We had quite an adventure. In the middle of the night a transformer blew, and when that happens here, it sounds like an explosion. So all of the power went out! I love it when it does that! Storms are always so exciting to me and all of the adventure that comes with it. It was about 4am give or take a half hour or so. Morgan went to look outside and it was snowing like crazy! Trees were snapping in half, trees were falling, it was wonderful. I bundled up Noel and cuddled her. Just before 8am Morgan tried to get to work but couldn't get out of our driveway. We then found out there were trees all over the roads and cars in ditches. Work was cancelled for Morgan! With no heat, the temperature fell really fast in our little single-wide. We couldn't take it anymore and asked to be pulled out of our driveway so we could go to my parents where they had a nice warm stove. We eventually got there around 1pm. We found out that the power came on in the late evening at our place but we ended up spending the night because the clouds went away and temperatures dropped into the 20's and teens so there was no way Morgan would be able to get out of our driveway in the morning for work. The snow stayed for a few days! It was wonderful!





Noel and I were hanging out the following morning at my parents and I snapped a picture of her smiling.
