Its been a wild week here folks. We had our first major snow of the winter Monday night it left us without power for about 30 hours and phone for about the same (although my business line stayed up fortunatly). Internet and Cable have been intermitant since then too
But I do see our little family has been growing here in my absence so theres good news

Just got out of the Driveway Today, been stuck inside for the Weekend (jk)
We received 3ft of snow by the time it stoped (Total 3ft in 12hours, Overnight), So basically All of London was Shut down (Really)
Official Snow Day for London ON. The mayor & the police advised everyone to stay home from work, don't even have to call in! Schools were closed
The Buses shut down & Cab Drivers were on Emergency Only (You had to call the police to get a Cab) the police then would decied if it was an emergency!
Malls, Grocery Stores, all Shut Down
Some PICs
The Middle two are my Two oldest Kids, getting our Winter BBQ ready for Supper time! (Canadian BBQs) Very Easy to keep the Beers Cold!
Bottom PIC was from my Cell phone, Thursday Night / Friday Morning
I was on a Smoke break (At Work), 2 Plow Trucks got stuck across the Street in the parking lot & left without finishing!

I gotta let you guy in on a Little Secret...
Even though we got 3 feet of snow in about a 12 hour period,
It pretty much melted (all of it) within 3 days.
