Dec 9th - Wisconsin Winters Stink!!

I know that none of us that live in Wisconsin want to relive December 9th, but those Floridians who thought they had cold weather need to see just what winter means in the midwest!
The storm was so bad they even closed American TV! That has happened only one other time in the 50+ years! I couldn't believe it! 

This storm was crazy, I think it was something like 18" in one day! Ridiculous! 
This is in our front yard. I think this is a 24" ruler.
Notice only about 6" left at the top!Lillian out in the first big snow! So cute in her snow sack! 





Notice the snow is almost to my knees! That is the TOP step to our front porch. The snow is covering up the other one! 


Poor Scott had to shovel! It was really wet and heavy snow!
Look at the giant snow bank across the street! 
This is our neighbor snow-blowing the drive way. You can get a pretty good look at the amount of snow we got and just how much fun it is when the snowplow comes and dumps tons of snow at the end of the driveway! Our neighbor has got to be about 6" tall... that bank is at his waist!The tress on the side of our houseSo pretty. This is our street after it was all done.The house after much shoveling!
Not only did a ton of snow dump on us, but in the same day Scott's back window in his car blew out! We had to tarp it up so more snow wouldn't get in. The Scott had to shovel so we could move my car out of the garage and get his into the garage. It was a really rough week!
