A bit of snow...




mhmmm....just a bit.  The pictures are all out of order---the one with just a dusting is obviously the "before" picture.  It's somewhere between 30-36" around our house.  There was a lot of wind so there are some drift taller than we are.  My husband had to go out and shovel a path to the backyard so the dogs could have a place to go do their business----we could only push the door open about five inches at first so let them out---and had to give them an encouraging push on the behind to convince them to go out.  The picture on the left of my husband standing in the backyard with snow to his waist is looking out the window on the back of our house.  It is up to the windows.  Crazy snow!  I wouldn't take Cooper out on Saturday because it didn't stop snowing until late in the evening and the blizzard warning was going on until late Saturday, but he enjoyed it from the window in his room---he would say over and over "no, no" which is his version of "snow".  I had a heck of a time getting him back in the house today after letting him go out to play---he is definitely all boy and has no hesitation about getting right into that cold, wet stuff.   That, and he was throwing himself down the driveway on his belly like a little penguin---I had to take him inside to prevent any unnecessary trips to the hospital since we would have to call the National Guard to get us out of the driveway---our roads have yet to be plowed.

  3. We like to stay tuned to your blog for the latest weather updates on the east coast. That amount of snow is insane! And I bet you are insane from being cooped up in the house with little Cooper. Everyone looks happy. Glad you are staying warm.
