But we're holding up inside just fine. We made some delicious whole wheat bread on Saturday (even using the wheat grinder and the Bosch--serious business). Sunday morning I made some coffee cake. Monday I want to do cinnamon rolls. Don't worry: I'm more than burning those calories. I can't even stress enough how much shoveling we've done. (In our house, it's not a man job, like lawn mowing. We both shovel.) And tomorrow, since I can't run, I'm going to take a snowshoe hike on the trail. I can't wait to see it all snowy!
I had all these plans for getting stuff done while being housebound, but not one has happened. Mostly because we're (1) outside shoveling, (2) outside playing, or (3) inside recovering from (1) and (2).
I can't resist this kid.
Job well done, us.

Moving was just so slow with that much snow. Kids really struggle! Thank goodness I could tamp is all down with my snowshoes.
I love the shape of the snow on the roof. I also love this kid.
Rhett is in the middle of our street. OUR STREET, PEOPLE.
The hill that grew in the backyard.
What good is a bunch of snow if it's not made into a cave or a tunnel? No good, I tell you. And as I type, he's still out there working on it. Man, I love the increased stamina in older kids!
Posting early so my parents can read before they leave for Belgium. Oh their hard life.
