Here are our pictures for round one of the 2010 blizzard. I don't know an exact inches count for where we live other than A LOT. It started snowing Friday morning and did not stop until Saturday night.

Brant cleaning off our friend's car.

Joshua has loved the snow more and more. He now willingly walks into it the snow that is up to his waist.

Brant having fun clearing snow.

Joshua and Ben working hard filling their pail.

We attempted to have the boys sled down the stairs in a laundry basket. It didn't work so well with both in the basket. Moving off the stairs they would just sink.

There was a moment of sledding success that Joshua thought was great.

Cleaning off the car Sunday morning. Let the digging begin!

Climbing over the snow bank to play while we dig. Check out that skill.

Nathan taking a cat nap in the back of the car so we can both work at the same time. And when Joshua wanted a break in the snow he got to "drive."

Cars are dug out, now it is time to play. Joshua begged for a snow man. And then wanted a snow man fight (snowball that is).

You see Brant...

...Now you don't.

All the snow from the parking lot/road has to go somewhere. Brant and Joshua were playing snow man (snow ball) ketch. Joshua liked it until Brant got him with one in the face. Then the rest of the day he would tell us, "no faces!" Which is a common thing we tell him when he is tickling or lion "clawing" us.

Attempting to sled Joshua down the hill.

We would love to do some real sledding but unfortunately sleds and snow shovels are a hot commodity and if a store gets them in they are gone in about 10 minutes.
The forecast calls for another 20 inches by tomorrow night.
