We Got Some Snow!!!!

As those of you in Utah know, we had a HUGE storm in Northern Utah yesterday. Here are some pictures.

At the end of the driveway is My mother-in-law, and Jons cars, there was too much snow that they got stuck in the driveway.
This is when Jon started snow blowing--- that is a lot of snow on the driveway.
This is only 2 hours after I got home. My car was cleaned off when I got home. I had to take Kaylee to school. It was the first time I had drove anywhere since the surgery. I had to forego my meds to get her to school, and this is how Mother Nature welcomes me out into the World.


Kaylee and Abbie enjoyed it. This was the first time we let Abbie go out and actually play in snow. She did not want to go inside. She loved it.

As for an update from me. Today is the two week mark. I am still in pain and am still swollen. I was talking to my sister Annie who had jaw surgery a few years ago and she said by two weeks her pain was gone. I think the big difference was that she was wired shut. It is really straining when I can kind of use my jaw because I think I am ok using my jaw, like for talking, eating, yawning (which KILLS by the way) but everytime I use it I am in excrutiating pain afterwards because I strain it a little too much. So, needless to say, its not easy, but I will get through it.

Holly, you're so tough to get through such a hard surgery! I hate driving in the snow when I feel alright let only when you don't feel 100%. Hope you're starting to feel better!

Wow, that was quite the storm! I am glad you are finally feeling better. Wish I could have helped and I hope you feel 100% soon!

I know that snowstorm was crazy! I cannot believe all that snow at Jon's parents house! Abbie looks so cute out there in the snow!
