Snow!

The east coast (and I am in Maryland) was just hit with a HUGE snowstorm this weekend.  We’ve finally dug ourselves out and here are the pictures to prove it!

This was around 11 AM on Saturday.  The snow was up to my knees.  It snowed for another 6 hours after that.

This used to be our street.

Those were during the snowstorm.  The following pictures were taken today, after it stopped snowing.

Our road hasn’t been plowed yet and we needed to get out (breaking the tv during superbowl weekend is never a good thing) so my husband started shoveling our street.

You can see the neighbors at the end of the street finally starting to help out.

Beaker desperately wanted to play frisbee.  Even 2+ feet of snow couldn’t stop him.

Almost there!

See the lady in the left corner shoveling?  Well, that huge pile of snow in the middle of the street was from her driveway (on the right).  Why on earth she thought that would be a good place for it is beyond me.  We made a path around most of it so it’s basically all still there.  I don’t know how she was planning on getting out of her driveway.

That hunk of man meat is my husband.  Yes, his sunglasses say “Sex.”  They used to say “Sexy” but he colored over the “y” with a black marker.  He liked the shape of the glasses but thought that them saying “Sexy” would be too girly.  Yeah, they look much better now.

Finished!

And of course just as we finish, our neighbors drive up the street.  Unfortunately for them, they had to shovel the rest of the way to their house.

Fortunately for us, Best Buy was open and they had a tv that fit our budget and space and now we are just waiting for the game to begin!  I’m a Ravens fan but since they didn’t make it I’m rooting for the Saints!  Go Saints!

  1. Love those pics! Your dogs are just too cute :) I love that all your neighbors came out and you all were shoveling the street - that is so awesome. Hope you had a good time watching the superbowl!
