Gasp aloud with me!
That's taken from our back mudroom door. Oh, my stars!
And through our screen porch this is the lovely snowscape {she writes sarcastically}.
It was beautiful to behold in December. But now...ugh.
Our adirondack chairs around the firepit. Looks inviting, doesn't it!
Wow do we have a lot of snow this year. And yesterday another eight to ten fell. JUST after a melt last week, thankfully. All the ice on the roof had a chance to melt before another layer of snow was added. And the piles lining the streets did decrease significantly. I could finally see oncoming cars as I pulled out...yes, it's been that crazy this year! The snow is piled so high.
Here is proof! That's our neighbor's dog this morning. See that snow pile behind him? That's just an average sized one right now.
And in case it doesn't seem high enough...
Hello! There is Ann, with the snowdrift over her head!
Thankful for Pa Ingalls, I mean Jim, this morning! He must have blown snow and shoveled for an hour. What a job!
Needless to say, we did enjoy Sunday spent in front of our fireplace the ENTIRE day. The real one with wood in the living room, not just the gas one in the family room! What a fun time.

Now today we have the day off...because of President's Day holiday not because of the snow. It's Minnesota people! :)
The kids are clamoring for Cooper's pannekoeken's for breakfast, but the teenager is still sleeping. Soundly.
All the snow drama behind us, we set our sights on the snowhill across the street. Sledding is in store for the afternoon! And hot cocoa. Yum!
