We had Swedish pancakes (crepes) for a special breakfast, filled with lingonberries, cream, chocolate, jam, all sorts of good stuff. Yum! 7 more inches to go today...snow not stopping til 7pm. Wow.

Still snowing!
The snow started about 10am yesterday, and it snowed all night and it is still snowing! The kids were quite giddy to wake up to snow crawling up the front door and to see their favorite swing on the swingset submerged beneath snow level. Dad's car is nearly covered up to the windows. When Owen opened the front door, he shouted, "We're trapped by the snow!!!" and indeed, we could only open the door about 6", just enough for Owen to squeeze out and do some shoveling. Owen sank to his waist and was very disappointed...How do I play???? We got out the snow shoes, but the snow is so fluffy, he still sinks at least a foot. Reuel is getting ready to go blow some snow!

Time to be so grateful for tight houses, central heat, full pantries, which let Owen and us all rejoice in the fun and beauty of it all! We've just watched the Lewis & CLark video, which is mind boggling in how to survive the elements without houses, heat, and pantries--what a contrast.
Seriously!!! I was just contemplating aloud last night how I feel like I am in such a small slice of people in history and in present who are not dealing with living through severely challenging physical circumstances. It doesn't seem fair or right...and yet how can I not be grateful?!!!!! I am!
