The snow this year is pretty wild. Although I am a bit bummed that, by April 12, it hasn't really started to melt yet (meaning it will be here at least as long as it was last spring, end of May), it is pretty cool to walk around and see how deep the snow is. So here it is... aka How deep is the snow? Let me count the ways:
#1: It is deep enough that this house, on the old side of town, is completely buried. The residents have dug a stairwell down into the snow, then a tunnel, to reach the doorway.And from the inside out:
#2: It is possible to stand on a roof next to a chimney without ever walking UP a drift -- just walking ground(ha)-level:
#3: Esther can even dunk!
#4: Esther can climb to the top of the monkey bars without help:
#5: We had to revise the fire escape plan for the classrooms that are supposed to go out the school's back steps:
And for your viewing pleasure, here are some pictures of my Easter Belles:("Mom, do I really have to wear the hat?")
And also of the girls finding their baskets and eggs that the Easter Bunny hid in our living room:Crawling to find eggs:Yeeppp -- Straight into the mouth! Eeesh.
