It’s Official: The Snow Is Here (Send Snacks and Patience)

It’s happening. The snow is coming. And not the cute, “maybe we’ll get a dusting” kind. We’re talking a doozy.

Now comes the moment where it sinks in: we are officially snowed in.

So what happens after the storm prep frenzy? After the grocery bags are unpacked and the kids ask, “What are we doing today?” for the 47th time before noon?
