Let it Snow

No, let it stop! Colin and I both grew up with a lot of snow, but this is easily the most snow that we've seen since living in Wisconsin. Our neighbor who's lived here A LOT longer than us said it's the most snow he's ever seen as well. And this week we also get the sub-zero temperatures - yeah! Needless to say, we've been spending lots of time inside the house! Feel free to stop by if you're in the neighborhood!

Great-Auntie Gretchen, Great-Uncle Darryl, and cousin Cory stopped by for a visit yesterday. I had to look up what Cory (my first cousin) would technically be to Ellie...he is her 'first cousin once removed'! That's a mouthful - we'll just stick with cousin! =)

I've come to the conclusion that all babies like ceiling fans. I know our nephews did and other friends' kids as well. Ellie likes to lay on my lap with her feet free and kicking looking up in a trance!

I also took some pictures of the Winter Wonderland. This is our back deck...you can't even tell where the step is, the snow is even with the ground!

The front landscaping - notice the icicles hanging off the porch.
