More pictures, SNOW SNOW SNOW

WOW! I can't believe the ammount of snow we woke up to this morning & continued to get throughout the day. As of right now we've gotten about a foot of snow, but where it was blowing & drifting it was probably about 4 feet high. Next to the house in the backyard the snow is about up to Justyn's eye level.

Justyn went out to shovel this afternoon to try to get the pickup out to take Alicia & family home, we had heard the other roads were back open & he thought if he could get out of our driveway we could get her home. This picture shows him resting the shovel on the TOP of the snowdrift, CRAZY HUGE SNOWDRIFT!

We shovelled & shovelled and GOT STUCK IN THE STREET. It was about 2-3 feet deep. So we shovelled back out & drove back up into the driveway.
Look at my handsome hubby - still smiling after all this snow, and shovelling:

We had decided to not even try to get out (we don't have a snowblower & there was just too much snow in the street) and were about to sit down to dinner when our awesome neighbors came over with their 4-wheeler & shovels & started shovelling our driveway! :) So Justyn bundled back up & went out again! Thank God for awesome neighbors! They've been doing this all winter long. Looks like I need to do a MAJOR baking session & bring the neighbors some goodies!!
Justyn managed to get the pickup out & get Alicia & family back home! We've just been relaxing tonight, and actually lost power for about 20 minutes, but all is well!!
YEESH, what a bunch of crazy weather.

Okay, so a bonus pic for you all! Prestyn's latest trick, he just did this today:
