where has the time gone?

So it's been a little crazy around here. I can't believe it's the 2nd week of Feb already!
Last Friday it started snowing at 4ish. I snapped this photo around 11 when my DH came home. If you look at the bushes you can see a great deal of snow had already accumulated. and if you look past the bushes you can see the street wasn't really plowed. Luckily my DH didn't have to work Saturday b/c by the time the snow was all done there was about 2 feet everywhere. We took the girls to a local movie place to see the Princess and the Frog. it was a cute movie. I think the girls really liked it. Then they played outside. how could they not with all that snow? They had a hard time getting around it was rather funny. I snapped a photo of them, and you can see how much snow there was on top of their house. Tonight we're supposed to get more snow. On through Thursday we're supposed to accumulate another foot or so of snow. We'll see how that goes! 
Today in the mail we got a memory foam mattress topper that I ordered from overstock.com It took a little work over an hour to unroll and when we were done I wasn't sure if it would fit our bed. In fact I was worried they'd sent us the wrong sized mattress topper. But the directions said it took a while to "air " out or puff up so we went down stairs to eat lunch and do stuff, and when we came back up stairs we found that it totally fit. I'm sooo excited b/c it will be a good nights sleep tonight. in fact I woke up this morning and thought to myself that matress topper needs to get here soon b/c i'm sick of my back hurting. My sister said they got a mattress topper like this one and it really helped when she was pregnant. of course we got our soooo cheap and with two pillows for less than what they cost in the store. (I've been looking at them for some time now). Sorry just had to brag a bit. well I've got dinner to make. Have a great night.

So did your mattress topper make a difference? We are having the same problem. Waking up every morning sore...:P

We've had our topper for years and it definitely makes the bed more comfortable. I think being more comfortable has helped my sore back somewhat.
