Oh, so this is what they were talking about.....

Morgan and Andrew: Welcome to the Great White North!!




















We went over to our neighbor's house yesterday to watch the Purdue game and hang out.  We heard on the news that we might be getting a foot a snow.  Yeah, right, we thought.  When we walked out to our car to leave....



Andrew thought it was an appropriate moment for some metal head banging and thrashing.








Of course, not believing in our local weather people, we had prepared nothing to clean off our cars.  Andrew improvised.















That snow was stacked up!















Of course the snow plow hadn't been through our neighborhood at that time of night yet so we plowed through the deep snow with our all wheel drive. 





















Yep, that's a foot of snow!



























































Brian couldn't get his paw wet since it was bandaged so he had to have a plastic bag on his foot when he went out. Again, poor guy.
















Deep snow! It was so deep, it was up to Brian's nose.








The next morning, since we don't have a snow blower like all the other people in our neighborhood, we had the shovel ourselves out.







Mission Accomplished!












Andrew's friend Nick went snowmobiling in Michigan and he left his truck at our house.  Hope he doesn't mind hauling some South Bend snow back home!






















We had to shovel out our deck too so Brian could go potty.





















You have to admire how beautiful a foot of snow can be (after you cuss mother nature for all the shoveling you had to do). 






































It's just amazing!













Here's our grill somewhere in that snowy whiteness....








Speaking of the Boilermakers, did you see that game yesterday? Wow.  Go Boilers!! 






















These guys were cracking us up during the game.
















The signs were pretty good this game.



























Ahh, wish we could've been there!

Go Boilers!










So our new year started off with a Boiler win and a foot of snow.  Both ended up being tons of fun.  And by tons, I mean, my back hurts.  Too much shoveling.  Time to go lay down.
