Breaking Records

This year has been crazy and honestly driving me a little nuts. Ryan just heard on the radio that we've had the most rainfall from Oct 1- the end of April (and we still have a few days left) since 1895!!! We've had, I believe, 43 inches and that's how much we normally get in 1 year!!! It has been cold and rainy and I CANNOT WAIT for summer to start.
But one cool thing was all the snow we got. We had like 6 different times we woke up to snow, and thats not normal for the lowlands. One day in the beginning of February we had 13 inches of snow from one snowstorm!!! It was crazy!! We never get that much snow. I mean they'll cancel school for an inch of snow so 13 was nuts. It was fun getting out and playing in it, but Vince and Jake we're getting a little frustrated because it was so deep they really couldnt walk very well! haha

This was Sunday when it started

We got out Sunday night and built a snowman, there was about 8 inches at this time

Then we woke up Monday with the 13 inches!



There was so much snow it was really weighing down our bushes and breaking branches so I had to go around with a broom knocking it down




I started making a snowfort and the boys had fun "cutting the snow with their chainsaws"
