This year in Rexburg, has been crazy. Brandon learned in class that this year had the longest strech they havee ver had of the outside tempurature never coming above freezing and the most snow they recieved in fourty years. With only one car, Brandon and i had to switch off who was able to use the car. Brandon had to get to the school every morning by 7:30am and i had to be a work at 8am. Since I could not bring myself to get up at 7am to get ready to take him to school i decided to just walk(during the summer i rode my bike) the half mile to the sinclair station. With the mass amounts of snow and being pregnant i decided that walking would be safest, well so i thought. In rexburg they are not so great about plowing the roads and shoveling the sidewalks. Once i walked down Trejo Street, where their are sidewalks, i have to cross a VERY busy street, Yellowstone Highway! I would be terrified to walk across in fear i would fall and an on coming car would not be able to stop in time on ice roads. I walked through snow up to my knees and the Call family just were amazed when i would walk into work with a red face and snow everywhere. Now that i am finished working and now longer have to trek through the snow every morning, i wonder to myself when is it going to melt?!? With a month until the baby comes i have noticed that there are still alot of snow all over. I would love to bring our little guy home without snow on the ground but i am thinking that it may be around until we move. We want so bad to be able to go outside but there is just snow everywhere. The locals here say that all the snow has allwayed melted before April General Conference but everyone is afraid that if the snow melts to fast we could definately have a flood on our hands but no need to worry, we live on the second floor!!!
