Snow

Taken at 3:19p on December 29, 2012, after only a few minutes of snow. All of that "accumulation" was from a few days ago.

Here is the after, taken at 10:19a on December 30, 2012. 

We got about 9 inches:

Scott is a rock star! He spent an hour snow blowing the driveway!

Here's what the house looks like:

I love the way snow looks and how it makes it feel like winter and cuddling up on a snowy day with Scott and/or the pups is great. But I am not someone who likes/loves snow mostly because it's dangerous on the roads and a hassle to clear off the cars/driveway. I don't mind a storm or two but if what happened two winters ago happens again, I might freak out.

This is literally 20 feet of snow in the driveway in 2010, we literally had nowhere else to put snow after a few weeks where it snowed 2 feet every other day. Ridiculous. And it was hard enough hat I could stand on it to get up there. 

This is CJ and Adam with an extension ladder to chop down the icicles so they didn't ruin the gutters but that ladder had to be in/on snow- very dangerous.

I hated that winter - worst winter ever. I think we had 8 or 9 snow days which is another thing I realllllly dislike. 

So here's to a quiet, calm, relatively snow free winter.
