the Day After Christmas

That's right 6 inches of snow!  On December 26 we woke up to probably 3 inches of snow. We were planning on going around to all the aunts and uncles houses but then Zack had a fever of 103 degrees and Will had a fever of 101 degrees.  Kip decided to go by himself and had a lot of fun.  When he came home Jaki went out to clear the driveway and there was 6 inches!  It wasn't done snowing yet either.  By the time she had cleared most of the driveway there was at least another inch on the driveway already.  She called it quits for now and headed in.

 When we woke up the next morning there was a little more than 4 more inches of snow.

 Zack was feeling better and didn't have a fever so he came out and helped for a little while.  He kept complaining because the snow was so bright it was hurting his eyes.

We measured how much snow total and that's right, there was 10 1/2 inches from 24 hours!  It was fun but Jaki was glad Kip was off work so she could get the driveway cleared.

 It snowed a couple more inches on Friday December 28, so that put us up to about 1 foot of snow in just a couple days.

On Friday Zack and Jaki went out and played in the snow.  They tried to make a snowman but the snow was just too powdery but they made snow angels and tubed down the hill in the backyard.

We've had quite the week of sickness though.  The kids have all had fevers off and on since the 26th.  Jaki went to a birthday party for her mom on Saturday the 29th and while she was away Will started complaining about his ears hurting.  We had a rough night with Will and Addi not sleeping well so we decided to go to the doctor today.  It turns out Will has a double ear infection and Addi has an ear infection.  Zack just has a really bad cold.  Poor little kiddos!
