Home Journal - Snow Fun!

A couple of weeks ago we had two H.U.G.E. snowstorms - one right after the other. The snows broke all kinds of records. We were housebound almost two weeks, but we snuggled close and had a good time hibernating.


One of the biggest passtimes during the snow was bird-watching. We had so many birds come to our back porch to get at the seed we scattered on the snow. We saw Cardinals, sparrows, Dark-eyed Juncos, doves and Bluejays. The kids were arguing over the binoculars and who would throw out more birdseed.

Snow piled high along our driveway. The orange is a post-hole digger to mark the drop-off of the driveway.

Beautiful.


Boys relaxing on their snowman turned snowchair.

Through the two weeks where it sometimes got in the negative numbers, the week following the snow had record high temps of 70 degrees. L (who is quite the dramatist) went out into the warm weather in his t-shirt and shorts to ride his scooter and play. When he was out there, he yelled, "I feel so alive!" as loud as he could. Lol!!!
