Snow?!

We had planned on planting potatoes last Friday, but.....

Friday morning we woke up to this!  Almost 8 inches on the porch railing!

Looks like a Christmas Card!  But it's April 15th!

Even Lu Lu got into the movie weekend.

Lus and Daddy playing on the floor.

Josh was pretty upset about the snow this weekend.  He had lots of spring plans that were ruined.  We watched some movies and he cleaned up his shop and got some stuff in the yard ready for taking to the dump on New Salem City Clean Up Day.  Josh started to take down the South part of the paddock fence.  We plan to have an easy route to the pasture garden for the 4-wheeler.  He plans to make a new kitchen table out of the good wood from the fence.  He started prepping the wood.  It is going to look pretty cool!

Secretly I was kind of happy we got the snow and had to have some inside time.  I got to work on sewing Olue's Easter dress.  Hopefully I'll finish tonight.  (Josh is gone in Fargo again and John is again zoned into Cars again!)  I also went through some of the kid's clothes.  It seems like their always growing out of what's in their dressers.

John's newest word that he uses all the time is "Ehvee" (Heavy).  Daddy always says, "Johnny, you're so heavy," when he picks him up.  So now every time he wants to be picked up, or he's lifting something heavy, or Olue is crying to be picked up he says, "Ehvee."  It's pretty cute.

It snowed again today and their is more snow in the forecast.  The yard was dried out before this storm.  It's kinda sad that John and I can't easily go outside anymore.  It now involves coats, hat, mittens, boots, and tears when he gets too cold.

Well...I better get back to that dress before the movie is over or Olue wakes up from her nap!
