Snow Excitment

Image

Glen:  Come on Lucy!  Let’s play.

Image

Lucy:  Oh boy!!

Image

Petey:  Lucy, you are going down.

Image

Lucy:  You can’t keep up with me old man.

Boys and their toys

Yesterday it was Glen’s turn to play in the snow. 

Image

Glens toy of choice…..his dirt bike….with snow tires of course.

Image

Off he goes….

Image

…. And he immediately located the garden hose that was buried in the snow.  I am sure there was a bad word or two mumbled as he untangled the hose from the back tire.

Image

The snow is really deep, so he didn’t ride for too long, but I was able to get this nice action shot.

Caught in the act

Image

Lucy:  This bird food is delicious!  I don’t understand why those dumb birds would throw all this on the floor….but I am glad they did.

At least the dogs enjoy the snow

This video was taken by Glen last Friday after our first snow storm. Lucy and Petey had a good time playing. Petey is such a vocal boy and sounds so serious with all his growling and barking. Petey is also a butt biter….as you can see towards the end of the video.

Snow, Snow and more Snow

As I have posted, last Thursday we got a butt load of snow.  I, unfortunately, had to go to work, so the pictures here were taken by Glen.  Also, we were “babysitting” Glen’s moms dog Tippy.

Image

Don’t think that Glen was being mean to Tippy.  Tippy is just a weird dog that loves bad snowy weather.  Yes…..he is actually enjoying this.

Image

After the storm, when the snow was unmolested.  It is at its prettiest here.  Picture doesn’t do it justice.

Image

I think yesterday I said we got 13 inches of snow.  Well, I was wrong…..we actually got 15.  Should be interesting to see how much more we get with the storm that is currently upon us.  Weatherman says we could get up to 20 inches.  Stay tuned.

 

Here we go again!

Last Thursday we had quite the snow storm.  It even included lightning and thunder, much to the dogs distress.  We were supposed to only get up to 6 inches of the white stuff.  Ended up getting 13 inches here at the house.

Lilly:  I can’t believe mom drove to work in this crap!

But, as the title of this post suggests…..we are about to get slammed again.  It is supposed to hit a couple of hours before I am due to drive home from work.  I will once again be driving in this crap.  We are supposed to get somewhere between 8 and 15 inches….but this time I don’t mind.  I am off on Tuesday.  Yay!!!  \o/

This map is from http://www.kshb.com….and it was from last night.  As of this morning they are now calling for 12 to 16 plus inches where I live.  Unbelievable! 

Yucky Winter Weather

I can’t wait until I can retire.  Maybe after I retire I will actually like it when it snows.  We are under a winter storm warning here in Missouri.  For those of you that don’t have to go to work when it snows……I am so jealous of you!

Fingers crossed the weathermen are wrong on the amounts of sleet and snow.

What Love Looks Like

Shower Time

Image

We try to spray Eva and Lila down on a daily basis.  Some days it doesn’t go as well as others.  On this day, Eva was loving it.

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
