| Looking South East behind the house |
 |
| One of our maple trees that still has some of it's leaves!! |
 |
| Come sit awhile in the back yard ;) |
 |
| Wind row trees |
 |
| trees drooping with the heavy snow....it has since warmed up and though all the snow is still on the ground it has fallen out of the trees....we like to call that "snow bombs" |
 |
| Looking down the driveway towards the highway |
 |
| Looking back up the driveway |
 |
| Kids making the hike up the hill after getting let out at 12:30 due to the weather |
 |
| Derrick...one step at a time up the hill he goes |
 |
| Kolby walking in the ditch |
 |
| Derrick almost there |
 |
| Finally we have gotten enough snow to sled in...and we are suppose to get more ;) Kids having fun going fast fast...and Clara is just as happy to Eat the snow! |
 |
| While at Tom's parent's house in Richland over New Years, we thought the kitchen window was open...with the very cold, hard blowing wind....we went to shut it and um...well it WAS shut!! The whole window was coming out of the wall...very crazy...so Tom and his dad nailed it in so it would stay put until they could call on someone to fix it...very wierd!! |
 |
| Smokey keeping watch over the cows |
 |
| It's already January and this is the only snow around in the high high mountains near Baker Oregon that we saw.....makes for good roads to travel on though ;) Just VERY thankful that Tom was able to catch the leaking hose in the suburban and be able to fix it BEFORE the kids and I headed home alone through the mountains in the dark with no cell service... The LORD is GOOD!!! |
 |
| There was really no snow so the new "mountain boy" sled had to be tried out inside ;) Kids all got new VANDAL clothes...so I made them take a picture with them!! |
 |
| Christmas at our house with my family....lots of fun, paper ripping, bows flying, kids playing, family laughing! |
