Digging Out After The 4 Day Storm

Ida May, 16 months old braving the snow. Just thrilled to be allowed out!

A good old snowball fight. I got pelted with one or two until I claimed immunity for being outside in my velour Christmas jammies. I'm just the photographer, I'll get my kicks milking and cleaning the barn, where the cows stood and dumped for 20 hours straight because THEY sure weren't gonna brave the storm just for a bathroom break!

Veda and Ayla, in matching hats, proved to be the real diehards. They outlasted their older siblings by far in dedication to snowy fun.

Ida May getting pooped out, and Cinder--the giant dog--eating snow.

Ida May and Skittles the cat making their way back home.

Zoie in HER Christmas jammies checking out the snow. Skittles peeking behind her. She had cat treats in her pocket, I think.

This is the view out the door of the creamery. Can't wait to get out there!

And finally, this white amorphous creature si what our minivan looked like before we started digging out. And now it is snowing hard again.....
