Winter is here!!!

Winter is officially here! We had our first Wisconsin winter storm Saturday, beginning with a snow/frozen rain storm which left our yard frozen like an ice cube. Last night we had another snow storm, but this time we had a total of 6 inches of beautiful powder-like snow! We took a walk down to the post office and were very surprised how clear and dry the streets were...I guess that is what happens when a place is ready for snow. Also, everybody was out in their yards and on the sidewalks using their snow blowers (looks kind of like an electric garden tool) to clear their driveways and sidewalks. We are supposed to get about 3 or 4 more inches tomorrow night as well as Saturday and Tuesday. I guess we better get used to wearing our snow gear, eh? :)

A special note to all of our west coast friends and family... our thoughts and prayers are with all of you as the flood water goes down. Take care...we love you and miss you!
