God Saved The Best For Last!

It’s already starting to get warm.  The weather recently has been in the lower 70s which is quite a change especially since just a week ago, this was what it looked like outside.

Last snow

This picture was taken last March 2nd.   The snow was about 10-12″ deep, the most we’ve had this winter.   Wow, everything was blanketed with snow, we actually stayed home and didn’t drive  for two days because our cars were buried in snow.   Joseph had not bought a shovel since he never expected we’d get this much snow this year.    But  eventually he was forced to drive out because he had to go to work.   Oh what a pain it was for him get the truck unstuck from the iced snow.  Providentially some willing neighbors offered help.  The lady who lives next door lent him her shovel, and then after some shoveling and more shoveling his truck was still stuck and skidding so bad.  Thankfully a few minutes later God sent another helper.  A man driving in his truck (I guess after seeing Joseph puzzling on how to solve his dilemma), stopped by to give his truck a push while Joseph was behind the steering wheel.    Well lesson learned, we decided to buy a shovel, even though we knew it would be the last snow for the season… I’m sure it will get used in the future.

The kids were most happy about the snow.  Knowing that it might not last long, I took them out for their first sledding adventure.  All three of them were not sure about sitting on a plastic boat-looking thing and sliding uncontrollably on the snow.  But in the end they were all enjoying it.   I myself felt like I was a child again,  as it was my first time too.  😀  I can’t believe I waited this long to get on a sled even though we’ve been living in the North for 2 years now.  Ohh and we even made a snowman.  Well here are some of our pictures  from last week.

He was so tired from playing in the snow, he fell asleep during lunch

He was wearing a bonnet which explains the ruffled hair.
