SNOW-MA-GEDDON 2011

How many snow photos do you want to see? If you are Pa and Pitski, I bet a lot! So we are here to provide them....

6 pm Tues. Hmmm - snow in the attic after 3 hours. Not a good result for the new roof!


8:45 a.m. Wed. Good morning! Sam is up and ready to help shovel.


The house. Under snow.


Brave husband starts digging out.


9 a.m. Kiera came over (from 4 doors down) and the girls headed out to play.





And then the snow really picked up


Lach's jeans post-shoveling


Throw a blanket over the dining room table - buys you at least an hour of entertainment!


1 pm. Snow stops. Sun emerges. Kids bundle up after lunch.


Opening the garage door - the wall of snow stacked 1 foot high against it.


Our neighbor's pile in the alley - cleared their garage, but piled snow to the top of their fence.


Venturing out to visit friends.




Alice, Sam, Kiera on the sled


The faux-sledding-hill constructed in Timmy's backyard


Woo hoo!! Worked just fine for us!


12 kids. 1 tiny hill. All good.


4 p.m. Walking home we stopped to climb snow mountain. (that's Sam on top)


Hmmm - red truck spinning wheels. Green truck behind it trying to gently bump it to move forward. Not working too well from what I can tell.


Whee!





This SUV stuck and abandoned halfway across the intersection. How are the plows ever going to get through?


Unlike some photos, this is a GREAT representation of how we feel about snowmageddon, sledding and school snow days!! More, please!


Alice goes for a final flop in the front yard!
