We are officially SNOWED IN!

Think we're getting some snow?


In case you're not sure, um, yeah!

So far we have gotten 19" of reported snow, with 6 ft. snow drifts. And, it's not supposed to stop snowing until sometime in the middle of the night. In all the snow storms I have been in through the years, I have never been snowed in. Until now.

Rick and I braved the blizzard to add a couple more homemade bird feeders and spread the remainder of our bird seed.



It's now all gone.




See that bird bath? It's really 3 feet tall.

Rick and Kyndal decided that they would "run to town" to get some more bird seed and rent some movies. They didn't get very far.



We don't know when we'll be able to get out of our driveway. It will literally be days!

The puppies gladly go out to potty, but it's only a few seconds before they say, "Let us in! It's cold!"


So, instead, we'll be doing a whole lot of game playing in the next few days and trying not to kill each other. Hopefully tomorrow we will be able to get outside and play.

  2. We live on an acreage, so our road drifts over with the littlest amount of snow. We've been trapped since Sunday afternoon.....last night everything cancelled....tonight everything cancelled....tomorrow not looking good. It's SOO windy here....hard to play outside with the bitterly cold temps, too. Just have to hunker down and wait it out!!! I am a homebody, so I don't mind!

  4. Ohhh, it's beautiful but after spending the past 3 years in Nebraska, I know it's COLD. Stay warm! And keep those beautiful little puppies warm to. They are so sweet trying to keep up with you in the snow.

  5. We're getting hit right now too. They actually closed school for tomorrow. That doesn't happen very often around here. Enjoy your snow days!

  6. We are snowed in as well! Nobody ventured out today and it's still snowing. I am planing on painting tomorrow and then playing games too! We probably will be out all week!

  7. Great pictures! You are so good keeping the birdies fed :) I haven't seen a bird in months....except for the random woodpecker that must have been very lost!

    Enjoy the fun! We are getting ready for our blast tomorrow. School is already canceled for tomorrow, which has never happened the day before here. Looking forward to no alarm clock. Yay :)
