daddy's home!

Daddy's lab closed today!  So we are all holed up.  The snowblower broke...again...so we're really snowed in.  We are buying a new snowblower when we can, enough with the bucket of bolts already.

Today's agenda included blowing up the air mattress as an impromptu bounce-house when combined with the couch, lunch picnic while skyping with Melissa, Galen, Hannah and Graham, snow shoveling, sledding, and various other fun.

If you give your kids a piece of chocolate cake and then walk away for a while, bad things happen.  I guess I assumed he'd want to *eat* it.

Granted, it's a snowblower pile and not the *true* level of the snow, but it's not *that* much higher...Owen next to the pile for scale reference.

Looking out the living room windows!  I wonder how the shrubs will survive all of this...

I thought we had a lot of snow til I saw some Chicago Tribune pictures.  Here's Lakeshore drive as of this morning (cars just abandoned):
What a sight!
