This may be the storm . . .

. . . where the driveway just gets smaller. The snow started earlier than usual this year and it’s stayed pretty cold so it’s really starting to pile up. The bank in front of the house is threatening to engulf the lamppost. We have steps cut into a bank at the end of the driveway that allow the kids to easily climb up to sled down into the backyard. The bank on the side yard will have to take most of the snow tomorrow when we clear the driveway, if we can heave it up that high. This picture is actually from the last storm, but you get the idea. I don’t really know how deep it is unpiled, three feet or more? Most of it has been powder, so we’ve done lots of sledding but not much snowman construction. So far it’s been fun!
