THE BIG SNOW STORM

We had the biggest snow storm since 1970 that started Friday at noon and ended on Saturday at noon. We had 18 inches when we awoke on Saturday morning and it was still snowing so I would say we had about 19-20 inches in all. It was definitely a winter wonderland scene and there was no traffic around our street. Above you can see the front of our house and below shows the front of our neighbors house. By afternoon the sun came out and it was beginning to melt so hopefully today it will melt some more.

Looking out from our garage, the bushes and bird bath were covered

It took us a while to find the sidewalk

Looking out from inside our garage - quite a wall of snow

Bird bath covered

Patio and it was a little deeper at the end

Rog with the snow blower on the driveway - we spend an hour with a scoop shovel before he started the snow blower and the progress was slow

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOLLY!

Molly is celebrating her 3rd birthday today. She is growing up to fast with all the older siblings teaching her everything. Above I am holding her; she was one week old and I was able to spend time and help with her during that first week. Look at her now - what a little CUTIE! She loves to help and has such an imagination. She can make fun out of about anything. You are a sweetie pie Molly and we love you very much and hope you have a very fun birthday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

ELLA IS TURNING 4 TODAY

FUN WEEKEND WITH MORE GRANDKIDS

Johnny brought their kids to Hutch this weekend and while he and Greg & Susan and a few of the older ones went to a Juco ball game Saturday night, I enjoyed trying to keep up with Ethan and Raegan. Avery and Meryn play very well together but the 2 little ones are very busy. We had lots of fun and we love having our grandchildren around.

The older cousins were off together playing all the time so didn't get pictures of the rest. They will be back in a couple of weeks so will catch them later.

Below Raegan and Ethan had just put some clothes down the laundry chute.

Avery and Meryn are playing with magnetic paper dolls

Ethan just wanted his picture taken - he is such a handsome little guy!

Raegan was smiling and waiting for some candy

Raegan wanted to be right with me in whatever I was doing and I didn't mind because otherwise she was into something she wasn't supposed to be getting into - she is a busy little girl:)
