Crazy Flagstaff Weather!

Taylor standing in front of the side of our driveway to show
how tall the snow is!

Flagstaff has been hit hard with snow the past week! The kids were out of school for the holiday on Monday but have had 4 snow days since then! I hope they don't take away our Spring Break to make up for the extra snow days! We got about 10 inches Monday night, 12 inches Tuesday night and last night I think they said we got around 15 inches. Throughout today they said we should expect about 1-2 more feet! It really hasn't stopped snowing at all for about 48 hours!




This picture was taken yesterday before all the MAJOR snow fell last night!
Everyone's snowblowers are running on overdrive! ;)

The kids wanted to make snow cones with the fresh snow so we set out a big popcorn bowl for about an hour outside and it filled right up and we made fresh snow cones! :)
