More snow again! This is officially the 6th snowstorm already this winter! It seems like we will never get a break! I got an early start to work this morning as I had no idea how the roads were going to be. Boy was I glad that I did! Once again it was a half hour drive - no one was moving to fast! But everyone made it to the office today!
That was a good thing! Shortly after we all were at work, we heard that there was a 14 car pile-up on the highway just north of town! This was right where several of my co-workers had just traveled through just a few hours before! Thankfully there were no serious injuries, but the highway was closed for several hours while they cleaned up the mess.
Since John is off work until after the 1st of the year, he was home today and got some really great pictures of the snow and all that fun stuff. He snapped this really col picture of the kittens trying to figure out what all the white stuff was that was out on the back deck. They are strictly indoor cats and have only been tossed out in the snow once or twice - but they didn't stay out too long! Apparently they don't like the cold on their paws!! We have all been so busy in the last few weeks, so no one has had time to tackle shoveling back there! The snow is pretty much higher than the kitties heads! If we don't get it shoveled pretty soon, they are not going to be able to see the trees even!
Nick and Connor spent most of the morning out on the 4-wheeler clearing out all the driveway's in the neighborhood. Connor was loving this as he got to help dad drive the 4-wheeler! Usually the kids all take turns riding on the back while Nick plows, but since all the older kids were in school today, Connor got to spend some good quality time hanging with dad!
On the news tonight they said that our snowfall so far this month is 33.7 inches! The scary thing is that the all-time high record for December is 36.4 inches, set back in 1887! I have no doubt that we will shatter that record this year since they are forecasting 3-4 inches for tonight and tomorrow and then another 4-6 on Friday! I am curious as to what the season snow fall record is because at this rate, I am thinking that we will probably break that record too!
