The snow storms this year have been endless….It seems that the girls have only gone to school half the time this year. Here we are, snowed in again today.

A fancy snow blower was one of the first big purchases David made when we moved into the house. He purchased it with such excitement as he looked forward to years of plowing the snow.

In our first year in the house, it only snowed once and he proudly plowed and shoveled the snow even knowing the temperature the next day would be high enough to melt it away. The next year, we had a bit more snow, however it became difficult for him to plow due to pain in his back. Reluctantly, he hired a company to plow.

The company has plowed our snow since then. They will come today and do a mediocre job since they do not get enough of the snow off the walkway/driveway.  Thanks to a good friend that always comes by after they are done to make the walkway conducive for walking.

Our snow plow sits in the garage and reminds me of how I wish David would be plowing the driveway.  Not only because of the good job he will have done but because of the satisfaction he would have had from doing it. Not to mention the fun the girls would be having outside in the snow with him.
