Laying It On Thick

It just wouldn't quit.
This snow thing just kept on coming and coming.
Here is what it looked like outside
my front door before I went to bed.


And the morning results...

12 inches of a thick blanket of snow!

I was afraid the trampoline was going to break!

Good ol' trash cans.


Now that's what I call a balancing act.


Poor little stick limbs are straining under
all of that weight!

Down the street is an amazing sight!
So crazy!!
Look at my neighbors trees.
They are hanging SOOOO low!

It's a good thing we kept ours pruned.

Syd and Ben inspect the iced over
slushy gutter.
Of course Ben stepped in it
within seconds.
He just couldn't resist "testing"
it out!

I think the snow was a little deep
for my little man.
He wasn't very happy about loosing his
shoe and his socks every 3 steps.


So we ended our snow experience by taking
walks, making snow angels and
building the Robert's Snowman.

Wow, I love it when it snows. Unfortunately we live in the wrong place for usual snow storms.
