More Blizzard pics

My brave little New Englanders decided to try out their Christmas hats, gloves, snow pants and sleds this morning during the great Blizzard of 2010.  Little princess, heading out with only her eyes exposed to the elements, let out a high pitched squeal as she sank up to her hips in the deep snow.
As you can see from these pictures, visibility was not good.  These pics were taken around 11 a.m.-- not at dusk, as the lighting would suggest.  The kids had a blast, especially when their daddy showed up to plow us out.  Poor daddy, he has been out plowing since about 3am.  Once the snow stops, he will have to go out and do it all over again!  He's tired. And not as thrilled about the storm as the kids are.
It's hard to tell how much snow we have, since it has been blowing and drifting.  On our deck, it looks like close to 2 ft!
Up to her hips!

Sledding

Climbing deep snow in order to go sledding!

Sammy has almost disappeared!

They're sitting down...can only see their heads

She fell and almost disappeared!

Just snow

Our handsome plow guy -- I've got a "thing" for him:)

The deck again

Thank you, Jesus, for a warm shelter from the storm, for hot food and drinks, and for the company of my family.  Please protect and bless all those who are cold, hungry and alone.
