First Big Snow 10-12-08

Well, earlier this month, on the 10th of October to be exact we had our first big snow storm. Josh and I awoke in the middle of the night to a strange noise. As I laid there thinking of all of the possible items in the back yard that could make such a noise, Josh sprung out of bed to discover we had lost half of the walnut tree in the backyard. Bummer! It was the side that had the swing on it too, which the day before had just been used by a handful of Girl Scouts and the kids.

Half of the tree gone...just like that.
Look at all that snow.
Front yard.

The front tree wasn't as bad. We lost a few limbs, but nothing like the backyard.

We gather that we had about 8" of the white stuff. The kids enjoyed it while it lasted.

Poor tree and swing!
