Snow

Well, we have had quite the snow in the last week and a half.  It never dumped more than 5-6 inches on any day, and most days it was only about 2-3 inches, but it kept coming and coming.

This first picture is the snow out our back door.  Impressive, but then you remember that there is actually two large steps down out our door to the ground and the snow is still almost a foot up over our door.



Here is the picnic table.


Tim actually measured and we have 18 inches on the picnic table.  Amazing considering a lot of snow blew off the table with the huge winds we've had.


As Tim has been snow blowing, our piles have been getting quite large.  It has been fun watching the kids try to climb up the ridges to get out in the snow to play.


My favorite thing, though is that even though we've had so much snow, we've actually had a couple of hours of this too:



Do you see it?  Sunshine and blue skies!  That is unheard of most days in Michigan.
