Snow!!!

 While we were in Coaldale we kept hearing reports of a major snowstorm coming. We had a game early Sunday morning and figured we would all be safe driving home as the storm was only suppose to hit in the late afternoon. What should have been an easy 1 1/2 hour drive home became a white knuckle drive home with white outs, icy roads and crazy snow drifts. If it wasn't for Trev's evasive driving we would have been part of a 20 car pile up. The vehicle behind us was safe and we watched the action begin with all the vehicles behind them. It was crazy watching vehicles crash into each other and bounce around the highway. Luckily now of the other 14 families we were traveling with were involved either.
 That huge snow storm turned into an exciting event for the kids as the meant that they could get their snowhill back! Trev is generous with his time and brings out the bobcat and cleans up the entire cul de sac and creates a huge hill for all the kids (about 14 of them) to play on. The town had cleaned up the last snow hill and so they have not been outside as much which us moms have not been thrilled about!

 But the hill is now back!!! I think within 5 minutes of the bobcat being fired up I had two mom's texting me so excited as their kids had their hill back! By the end of the next day every mom had texted with a huge thanks to Trev. Our kids have all been playing outside so much.
