The Farmer's Almanac predicted a long, cold, wet winter this year, and so far it looks like it won't disappoint. It is a little unusual to get this amount of snow and steady winter weather before Christmas.

It's great more making snowmen, though. Isn't he cute?

Actually, he's kind of shrimpy. The snow was too cold to stick. (Snowman kit from Land of Nod.)

The snow is piled up on our deck railing.

Here is my dad clearing the snow off his truck. Beautiful!
