Winter Wonderland











We have had a crazy winter. It has snowed more in the month of December than all of last winter. It is also very beautiful as long as I can sit in my house by a roaring fire and enjoy the kids playing in it. Harvey was so excited though to make a snow man. One of the storms he was standing on the porch and diving off into the snow drifts loving life. We were loving life and enjoying it until the temp were so cold for so long and this last week we have had frozen pipes and no water in the house for a week. Lots of fun let me tell you. Well several days of huge fires and heat lamps not to mention digging up the pipe line and trying to unthaw with a torch. In the wee hours of the morning we woke up to one of the showers running full blast. I have never been so happy to hear running water!!!!!! Moral of the story is don't take turning on a faucet and water coming out for granted.

Wow! That looks gorgeous! But I don't know how you survived without water. Next time, just pack up the kids and head to town...I know of a house that was recently vacated:)
