We got six inches of new snow yesterday. And our snowblower is broken (or, at least, Greg has given up trying to get it to start). I don't have the faintest idea myself how to start or use a snowblower, so during one of the short periods yesterday when it wasn't snowing, our family foursome went out and shoveled.
We weren't really out there very long--our driveway isn't much (especially compared to, say, my parents' driveway--but they have a working snowblower). One of our neighbors saw us outside and came across the street to do our sidewalk. That was very sweet--Greg has regularly used our snowblower to do the sidewalks of other neighbors of ours, but I don't think he's ever done Lori's.
It was light, fluffy snow, thankfully. And now, everything is looking very Winter Wonderlandish. It's supposed to warm up a little today, so maybe the snow will get wetter and the girls will be able to pack it and make a snowman. We haven't made any snowmen yet this winter, despite this being our third good snowstorm.
And last night, the snow made everything outside so bright that after we turned out the lights to head to bed, both Greg and I were looking for a full moon or something. No moon, just lots and lots of frozen precipitation. Lots and lots.
