Last week, we got hit by that snowstorm. The one that blanketed a lot of the East coast. That one that left people stranded on the highway in Chapel Hill, NC. It was a mid-week snowstorm, which is the best kind, because schools get canceled {pre-emptively}, work gets canceled {also pre-emptively, which is ideal, because you can plan for it, as we did ;) }, and you're left with a little mini snowcation. Will and Izzy and I took it one step further, and got snowed in with our dear friends, Katie and Derek and their sweet baby boy Caleb. If you're going to be snowed in, for, what feels like the 15th time this winter, then doing it with fun friends who have a sunny, baby friendly, roomy and cheerful house is the best way to go. Because, let's face it, cabin fever is real, especially this time of year.
I try to avoid it at all cost.

We had the best time- Will and Derek got to shovel lots of snow, make grocery store runs, and discuss whatever boys discuss.
Katie and I let the babies do their thing, while we blabbed about important lady topics and caught up on... Vanderpump Rules, The Bachelor, Real Housewives, etc.
They were the sweetest hosts, and if I didn't hate winter so much, I'd say it was perfect. ;)
{PS: Will, Katie, Derek and I were also snowed in years ago during THE Snowmageddon. The one that buried cars. That was pre-baby era, even pre-wedding era. So yes, whoa.... Katie and I agreed, looking back to that time, we felt like kids... and now we're raising them! Ha!}

Also, if you follow Home & Sass on Facebook then you probably already know this, but I wrote something recently that was on the blog Scary Mommy. It's one of those, "How to Survive" sort of posts, about getting through your first job interview after having a baby {with some humor, because, duh, how else would that be surviveable??}.
Hope you like it!
