Spring Is In the Air

Okay so I don't guess technically 37 degrees should count as "spring" in the air... but the sun is out and it's above freezing, so I think it's close enough ;) The past two days have been so beautiful! It's amazing how much a sunny day can improve your mood! We did end up getting quite a bit of snow the other day/night. It was just light flurries when I got to work... 5 hours later, this is what I walked out to...
 Yep, the road I was parked on was completely covered!
 And it took a while to clear my car! It was still snowing so hard that by the time I finished, the windshield had to be scraped again, ha!
 I was a little nervous about driving home. The worst part was actually getting out of that parking spot because of the mounds of snow surrounding all sides of my car! Thankfully, they keep the main roads pretty clear, so the drive wasn't bad. 
It ended up snowing all night. I think we got around 9 inches maybe?! It took Z quite a while to scrape our car the next morning! Here is a picture I took the next day of the park {Lincoln Park} right by my school. So pretty!!!
So that was the most snow I've seen so far. And in March no less. It was really pretty... I do wish we had gotten a snow day, but oh well! ;) {Funny that we got 9 inches of snow and no days out of school!} But I think I'm ready for Spring now. One of my little girls at school told me she heard the birds singing about spring, so it must be close!! I hope she's right!
Have a great weekend!
