Oh no, it rained - and then snowed again.

Friday night it warmed up to 40 degrees and it rained all night and melted all the snow that we did have. On Saturday Brent and I were able to finish up our winter projects. All the doors have new weather stripping and the wood is unloaded and all the lawn furniture is put away. It was a rather nice day to spend outside. Then last night it snowed again. Brent was standing and staring as the snowflakes were falling and he decided that he should go and fire up the snowmachine and take it for a spin. With not even 2 inches of the ground he took his sled out for a ride. As you can tell from his ear to ear smile - winter is his favorite season.

Oh no ... it snowed!

We got our first true snow this last week and winter is here to stay. Although I will miss the green grass and warm days (I guess we had some of those in September) I do love the snow. As Brent jokingly said he will sit in his garage on his snowmachine and watch the snow fall. Brent is really looking forward to this winter, snowmaching, ice fishing, and we are even going to try and go cross country skiing. So bring on the snow - but keep the 50 below away to a minimum. But in case the 50 below does come, we are getting a woodstove installed next month. Brent and my dad, along with my mom's cousin have been busy all summer getting wood. Our woodshed is stacked tall and we are ready to start burning.
