Eskimo Greetings!

I took the kids outside the other day, we did some shoveling and playing (not today though as for we had sub zero temperatures). I thought Rose E looked like a little pink Eskimo. We got on all of her winter gear and as she wobbled around in it and said "it hurts" I said "where does it hurt?" She said "everywhere."
These next two pictures don't do justice but we are just loaded down with snow this year to say the least. Our mountains of snow are getting to be quiet the workout for shoveling snow on top of. I guess I am not the only one ready for spring as for tonight Walter got out of bed at bedtime to tell us that if we see the Easter bunny to go to sleep (he just hates it that we get to stay-up later than him).

This is in front of our plowing pile which has grown in size even more since a couple of days ago when this picture was taken. It's hard to imagine this pile ever melting! I couldn't believe it too when we drove past our park today we couldn't even see the playground equipment with the snow banks up so high (and we where even sitting up higher in our surburan).
On another note, Jeff had his doctor's appointment on Tuesday. Everything looked good and he is not supposed to lift anything heavy for another two weeks. However, the past couple of days his stomach hasn't been wanting to cooperate, I pray that he is back to normal soon.
Speaking of praying, tonight I started to sing "Jesus Loves Me" to Rose E and she said "no singing, Amen(and that is final)!"It's so funny how she is getting a little mind of her own these days.

Your little pink Eskimo is a cutie! We too are thinking Spring in Wisconsin! Tell Walter, I hope the Easter Bunny comes soon too!

Today I had to count the weeks until the Easter bunny came for him and it was depressing! Oh well, with how time flies I'm sure it will be here before we know it!
