let it snow

Did you hear? Did you hear we had a blizzard? We did. The Blizzard of 2006, so they say. There's a good 18 inches of snow in our yard...more in some places. We opened our door twice yesterday and got a living room full of snow both times. Once to get the milk (gotta love the milkman who delivers despite feet of snow) and once to let the Shertzers in. Crazy fools walked down here in their honest-to-goodness snowshoes. Those big webbed things you have to traipse in. Not walk, traipse. I think they were going a little stir-crazy.

We opened our garage door to get out and play. Warning: an obnoxious number of pictures to be displayed...

And, finally, my baby the penguin. This shot just reminds me so much of March of the Penguins. Brent and I saw it when I was pretty pregnant and I just cried and cried over those little birds. Now, I've got my own. And she's just the sweetest little waddler I've ever seen!
