Weekend Blizzard

Yesterday was the start of a weekend-long the blizzard. I guess we got about 6 or 7 inches of snow total but it looks like more since it's been blowing hard all day. We woke up this morning and it was actually quite beautiful... the evergreen trees were piled full of the fluffy white stuff. The bad part was the frigid temperature... 2˚ was the high but the windchill was about -30˚. Thank goodness for our grove. It blocked us from the brunt of the wind. The drifts were amazing! I'll have to try to get a picture of that soon... hopefully the wind lets up and it gets a little warmer. 

Saturday... Jared and Keith were moving snow.
Got a neat picture of a Sun Dog.

This was the view of our backyard. Evergreens were almost totally covered up.

The front porch... frosty!

Before venturing outside to ride the snowmobile... all bundled up!

Keith is driving the snowmobile... Jared is being pulled in a sled. He absolutely LOVES it! Dozer wasn't too far behind chasing them.

After the fun outside. BRRR!!!
The picture doesn't show nearly how red his cheeks were.
