3 Ft of Snow and Camping

Shane's new toy....I think not!

Baker helping

This is cool Uncle Chad

When you receive 3 feet of snow in your front yard you have to have a snow plow on hand. Baker got his first experience with this and apparently loved it (no boys, we are not buying one). After their day of sledding, slidding and mushing, they came home to more snow. Baker, Shane and Gretchen cleared the driveway. Then, some unexpected news happened and one of their friends who was visiting couldn't get home because the road had closed. Chad and Gretchen are very gracious. They offered to let Shelly and her 2 daughters stay at the house overnight. Now, Chad and Gretchen don't have a large home. Shane and Baker were in the guest room, Grandma and Grandpa in Chad and Gretchen's room and the hosts were staying on a mattress in the dining room. Where in the world do you put 3 more people? Oh, and they have 2 huge dogs and a cat! Well, for those of you who know Chad and Gretchen, this will not surprise you. They, along with the 2 dogs slept outside in their tent! Remember, it is dark at least 18 hours a day and about 15 degrees! I think Baker wanted to join them...see him with Uncle Chad? They're house was back to normal the next day and everyone had a place to sleep...inside.
