More snow...

For those of you who don't know, Spokane has received a record number of snow fall this year. Somewhere near the 70 inch mark just for the month of December. We even made the national news on the 'Today' show! While it has been absolutely gorgeous, I am SO ready to be out of it. It is depressing to think that there could be 2-3 more months of this!!!

Here are some more snow pictures I have taken over the past few weeks:

This is on my way up to my parents house. (no, I was not driving!):)

These were taken on a different day:

Up at my parents house, my dad has been busy with the snow-blower.

Like everyday he is out doing this for hours:

Angie & Nathan were in Mexico for the first major snowfall. Can you tell which two vehicles are theirs? And an extra bonus point if you can even find Nathan's car!

They are recommending that people shovel off their roofs because of all the accumulation on roofs. My dad, my husband, my brother and my brother-in-law all went to work up at my parents house:

The pile once they were done:

And the finished roof:

Angie and Kayla opted just to watch! :)

And how else would a group of guys get off a roof? Especially with a few feet of freshly fallen snow underneath them? Why, jumping off, of course!

Dad went off first:

Then Nathan did a flip off:

Then Jason did a flip off:

Ben opted to slide off on his belly!!! :)

And here they are with the wall of snow that they created that was taller than them!

Here is my parents invisible fence:

And here is a little visitor that my parents had in their backyard! A Moose!

When Ben's parents were visiting, his mother loved the snow! My dad invited us up for a crab dinner and she just had to walk out to the big tree in their back-yard, wearing my dads big snow boots!!

And you can tell how happy she is to be in the snow in this picture:

They finally decided to dig out Nathans car:

We have had a neighbor who has been nice enough to help plow us out a little. We have still had to do plenty of shoveling, but he has done our road and the burm in front of our driveway left by the big city plows.

Here's the pile up in our front yard:

And the view from our front steps:

You will notice that the mail-box is barely poking out of the snow!

Our neighbors tree:

My sister took this of down-town Spokane when she was here. I stole it off of her blog because I thought it was so pretty! Thanks Kayla!

OK, that's all the snow pictures that I will hopefully have this year! And even if we do get more snow, I refuse to take pictures of it!!! :)
