Weekly Winners – snow storm edition

Here in the Mid-Atlantic region we have a plethora of snow. It started snowing around 6pm Friday night and continued for over 24 hours.

Early Saturday Havoc tried to get some shoveling done but there was too much coming down

When it slowed up around 2pm he went back out (in a dry coat) to snow that almost reached his waist

Mayhem has always been a bit dubious about snow. (I have pictures of him at 12 months old in the snow with this expression)

He just doesn’t manage well in it

There were 19.5 inches in my yard at 4:15pm Saturday

Wow! That's a lot of snow! I'm with Mayhem... not so sure about that much, or any for that matter (unless I'm skiing). Great shots! =)

Great shots. Hope the kids enjoy all the snow.

I have two daughters that feel the same way about snow. The older one loves it and the younger one...not so much!

Love Mayhem's fall into the snow- poor guy!

Wow - snow!!!! Living here in the tropics, I love seeing snow on photos and wish I can play with them. Thanks for sharing these photos with us :)

Great snow shots!

Chantelle @ photo mommy said...

That's a lot of snow, alright! Great photos.

Lizzie said...

Well you certainly beat us! We had about 5 inches on Thursday night and a dusting overnight Saturday, just to make sure.
Mayhem really doesn't look impressed. Can't say I blame him! Give me the Spring sunshine any day.

Oh My Gosh, What Fun!!

Merry Christmas!

Jeanette said...

Oh word, that's far too cold for me... and we're sweltering in the heat here at the moment!

Amy said...

My boys would be over the moon with this snow! Here in the south, we've gotten a little cold rain and that's it (yuck).

How pretty it looks!

Carol Anne said...

Love the measuring photo. Wish I'd have thought to measure how much we got. Think the news said 20.5"

Cortney @ evanhaslanded.com said...

I love the look on Mayhem's face!! That is just priceless! Hoping you get dug out soon! We have one of those every other year, so I empathize :-)

Oh my, that is a ton of snow! Love Mayhem's expression - that would be mine too.

I'm sorry, but for all the generalizations Americans make about Canada and snow, I am enjoying this morning's tour of the blogosphere where everyone is posting their "look at my backyard" photos while we got NO SNOW. :)

Corina said...

Kids looked like they will enjoy! So much fun!

Aunt Becky said...

Now THAT is how I feel about snow! Hahahaha! I *knew* I liked that kid for a reason (and not just because he was full of The Awesome).
