Snow around the yard
This is Ted's work car, we don't drive it in the winter because it doesn't handle well in snow. (that is what we get for buying a dodge!) The snow has melted a little, but at one point all you could see was the radio antenna. We had more snow this year then we have in about 8 years. The first winter I moved here in 1999 we had quite abit of snow as well. The kids have loved all this snow. They were able to go snowmobiling in the back yard. I was scared for our fence but the kids controlled to snowmobiles well. This is on the East side of our house. The snow drifted here leaving about 6 feet of snow. Nick and Carson sled down this snow mound. There is a window that got covered by the snow and for a while I couldn't figure out why it was so dark in this room downstairs. It is at the bottom of the stairs and there is no light fixture there, this "room" is what sepperates the family room, bathroom and laudry room downstairs, yet connects them to the stairs. It was so dark, the kids didn't like to go down the stairs by themselves. This is on the west side of the house. For a while there you couldn't see the fence. I must say I am greatful for the moisture, but next year I would pray that it fell nore in the mountains and less in my shoveling area. After the first two snow storms my back hurt so bad that I gave into Ted and let him buy a four-wheeler with a plow. (I haven't shoveled snow since.) Ted liked doing it so much that he would go out and shovel what needed to be shoveled and plowed the rest. It was great.

After shoveling snow in our driveway this winter I told dad that we needed a four wheeler with a blade!
