The Great Snow Storm of 2010

On Thursday, February 11th, the Dallas/Fort Worth area had the biggest snowstorm in the past 111 years...I went to work on Thursday and watched out the window as it snowed and snowed and snowed....nearly 24 hours straight of snow....here...in Dallas, TX...we had more snow than Vancouver and they are hosting the Winter Olympics...

Nicholas loves the snow...he loves to play in it, sit in hit, hold it, smell it and especially to eat it....

Here are some pictures....enjoy!



Here is what my car looked like on Friday morning, the day after we received over a foot of snow! It took me 20 minutes to clean off my car before I drove to work.

Here is the area behind our backyard that is supposed to be dry but a family of beavers have built a dang dam causing it to fill with water. You can see the tree they chewed and chewed until it fell over just like in a cartoon. During our 20 degree weather this area freezes over like a hockey rink.

Another view from our backyard. Reminds me of Big Bear California...

And finally....another view from our backyard...great pictures by Lisa!


One of the many Cardinals that frequents our bird feeders trying to figure out what the heck is going on here!


The whole family (except our kitty Snickers) got to enjoy the snow. Here is Sabian posing for Lisa...



Here is Schnapps searching and sniffing and being all cute and stuff....


Speaking of cute........Here is Nicholas in the middle of our backyard, in the snow, during the snow storm, having a blast!

Here is an exclusive shot of "the boy" on the move searching for something to eat!


Mission accomplished....time to chow down!


OH WAIT....suddenly "the boy" is on the other side of the yard in the blink of an eye!


Snow should be one of the major food groups......


This stuff is snowtastic!


The snow level keeps rising and rising....I must figure out a way to stay out of harms way......


Must eat more snow must eat more snow!!!



I even love the smell of snow...



Must get more snow....Out of my way Giant Snow Monster!


Pssssss....hey...if you let me have some more snow I'll be your best friend...
