Too much snow!

What can a crazy guy with too much snow build?


A friend of mine who lives in Ottawa sent this picture to me yesterday. This man, Luc G. has been working on this snow bank since November building it up. His profession if you haven't guessed is a carpenter, so I guess he would have made it pretty sound. It was approved by the fire department and city planner. He now has to use a extention ladder to get to the top to smooth it down. He even adapted his snow blower to make the snow fall right on top of the wall.

Ryan's First Sledding Day

What beautiful weather we had on March 1st and 2nd. On the Saturday we had a scheduled youth event and went to them to really nice hill in Clarkson. We started on the the "bunny hill" but soon progressed to the "Black Diamond" well, that is everyone but me. I freak out riding a bike down a hill. They got me to go down a total of three times during the course of two days. Ryan went down so many times I can't count. His favorite person to sled with was Auntie Sarah Jayne. A little obvious from the pictures. He went once with Daddy, but wiped out and that was the last of that. On Sunday, our college & career group decided to copy events such it was again such a beautiful day. So two days of sledding! Ryan loved it, Daddy was a little sore, and mommy had enough stress to last me a week! All in all and really, really fun week!
