Feb 5th SnowStorm 2010

Well not only was this snow storm a duezy, dropping 12 lovely inches on us (thank God we were all home safe and sound prior to the start of this storm), it also shocked us the next day when we woke up and could not get out the backdoor because it was drifted closed.

The drifting snow is bad at our house with only 2-3 inches of snow, and most times we cannot get out of the driveway, not even with the truck. After some shoveling, and a friendly plow. . .the boys decided to have some fun in the snow. (see below)

As for me, I am still under the impression that snow is dangerous (and proven correct after ALMOST falling THREE times!!! ugh) unless building a snowman, and this was the wrong snow for that. . .so after snagging a few shots of my guys, I went back into hibernation!! Nice and warm and cozy. . .and where I prefer to be. hehe


We had to dig, to move the car, so it could be plowed. what fun! that pile is bigger than my car!!


Outside the back door, after it was shoveled. . .snow higher than steps!! sheesh!


Just a good shot of how deep the snow is compared to the truck. . .and that bare spot shows how bad it was blowing, AND drifting!


Alex showing me his first snowball (kinda) and that he was going to "get" Dad! haha :)


Bob is helping Alex up after he slid and fell. . .twice. . .and because Bob thought is was funny . . .


Alex decided it was time for Dad to take a nose dive. . .haha


but then he was a sweet kid and helped the old man up. . .better not laugh again, Dad!! ;)


Proof of how much snow there really was. . .before drifting. LOL


Our long ass driveway that ALWAYS drifts closed! It hasn't YET in this pic!


Bob and Alex jumped into this drift, and they thought it was a blast. Even though Alex was "stuck" which was funny. :)
