Winter's here!

This morning, we only had about a half inch of snow on the ground.  The weather had turned too fast when winter officially came, so we got a tiny bit of snow, but alot of ice, and then just really cold weather.  On the ground, there is about a solid inch of ice on the ground.  It sure makes walking treacherous, we had to buy some cleats after I slipped on the ice, landed on my behind and smacked the back of my head into a curb!  I'm fine though.

Well, today, the weather people were predicting a blizzard; 1-4 inches of snow! The storm came in around 1 with some icy cold wind, and then around 2 the snow started.  By 5, we had nearly two inches of snow, and can barely see our neighbors house.  It's great!
