...and it's still coming down

Random afternoon shots...


Looking at the corner of our fence...the drifts are just about covering it.


Backyard beauty


Love those pine trees.


Dodger is very appreciative of his path.


The wind is doing funny things to the snow.


Another wind creation.


Working on a fort.


A pile of snow about to be tunneled through.


She stayed out for quite a while.


K's hideaway...


Yahtzee, DS, ipod, playdough, chocolate bar, blanket, pillow and flashlight...


What more does a girl need?


What's this?
Well, it's snowman face kits. The cloth button eyes have been painted and yarn cut to make a smile. Just need to grab a carrot. Hats and scarves are folded right next to the face kits. She is prepared!!


Here's her homemade flag ready to stake claim to the fort.


Dodger is visiting inside the hideaway.


Soups on!


And now for a followup on the poor birds out back. The snow has
temporarily (?) stopped. Out our side window we could see the bird that had been sitting in the snow earlier. Looking further away we could see other birds doing the same thing.

What were they doing??




Take a look.....


He has his head down and you can see all the ice on the back of his head.

He kept shaking his body and wings and doing a little tail wag. It was cute. Just wish there was some sun to help him out.

Remember, you can click on the pictures to see them bigger.

Too bad I can't send out the smell of our homemade chicken soup.

Mmmmmm........
