Snow!

Yeah, well, remember how I said I wasn't too impressed with the snow accumilation yesterday?
I'm impressed now!


WE HAVE 8 INCHES OF SNOW!!

It has been a long time since it has snowed that much here. 
And just look at my poor "Big Mama Van"!!
Wayne is gonna have to dig it out.

Wayne has been feeding the birds on our back deck.  He does it for the sole purpose of listening to Sydney get so excited about them.  Well, I was the first one up this morning and our tree beside the deck was absolutely packed with birds.  I felt so sorry for them.  They were just waiting for some food. 





So I grabbed a bucket of seeds, put on Waynes boots that were beside the door, and was off to the rescue.  One step out into the snow and I realized that perhaps I should have put on taller boots.  The snow was deep enough that it went over the tops of the boots and right down inside them.  Brrrrrrrrrrrrr!  I continued on and scattered the seed.  I could hear alot of rustling behind me.  After I closed the door I turned around and this is what I saw:





It's been about an hour now and they are still at it!
