Hope you're all enjoying winter! The snow just keeps on coming around here and you'd never know spring is just a few weeks away. Another couple of storms and now we have more snow than I ever remember seeing here and just might have snowbanks until June. In the middle of the yard it's over Emily's head and we have paths shoveled around to get from place to place. Last weekend Danny helped me shovel 3 1/2 feet of snow off the roof and we ended up with snowbanks up to the roof line and the girls just climbed on up and slid/jumped on down the other side. On top of that it's been so cold the girls can barely go out and play in it, but yesterday we got a break in the arctic air for 24 hours and the temp actually got to the mid 30s! The girls wanted to go to LL Bean so we packed the snowshoes and went up that way to hike Bradbury Mountain and then tour the store. I don't think Ashley remembered any of it because everything got a bit "woooooow" out of her. They had fun there as usual and now the cold air is returning. It's supposed to hit -7 here tonight, and stay cool all week, so who knows what we'll get to do for the rest of School Vacation week but hopefully there's some more fun in store before it's over. We shall see. For now to see pictures from the last week or so you can click right here and if anything else worth posting happens I'll be sure and update the blog as soon as I get a chance.
