Beautiful (heavy) snow!

Todd headed out to work this morning... and got stuck...  about 3 feet from his starting point...  Since he had a busy morning scheduled at work, one of his co-workers came and picked him up at the end of the driveway and the kids and I got busy on the driveway.  We shoveled sand behind and in front of the tires (sorry Lincoln and Garrett - we'll have to re-fill your sandbox this summer) and moved around gravel and I was able to get the van out of the first rut - only to have the back end swing around into the other side of the driveway into the yard to get stuck again (repeat of the sand and gravel) ... finally got out of that one and swung back around only to get stuck again (and another repeat)...  finally got to the end of the driveway and parked it.  Then the kids headed out with shovels and got most of the snow off of 1/2 of the driveway.  Hoping the sun takes care of the rest of it!

1st rut

2nd rut

3rd rut

Yay - we can get out!

Tired shovelers!  Slightly exaggerated, I think - although they DID move a lot of heavy snow!
