sno day






i know, i know. everybody is blogging, tweeting, and talking about snow. i know. but really, every time i step out the door, i am just rereminded of how dang MUCH of it there is!!

it's crazy. it's everywhere. it's TALL. at least 24-30" thruout the whole yard. much taller in the 'piles' left from shoveling.

luckily, the snowshoes i ordered shipped yesterday. i told kristie i was going to put them on and make a circle around the house. otherwise, there is no way i could get to the back yard!!!!

i keep noticing the birds and bunnies. i actually think the snow helps them. there are some low-growing evergreen bushes next to my neighbors property. i look out my window, and sometimes i see birds burrowing into the branches, underneath the snow. i am imagining they have all built large snow tunnels, and are staying warm and having a good winter. at least that's how i picture it ;)


happy day. get out and take a look at the snow up close.

Why are your photos always SO MUCH better than mine?

I took some shots (through the glass) of the bird feeders. Will download now.

Also--did your 24-30 inches come all at once?

you're just seeing things - a couple of those pics you posted were BEAUTIFUL.

snow is pretty :)

no, it comes regularly, not all at once. well, most of it came on christmas day 2009.

Thanks.

I can't help but wonder if the nation's capital would be all shut down if our snow came regularly instead of all at once. It's craaaazy here. The kids will not have school at all this week, and had it only two days last week.

I love how your snow pics show the beauty of the blue sky. We only have about a foot here.
What a blessing to see the sun today!

Please model the snow shoes when they arrive!
