Snow Blowing to the extreme


What would you think if you looked out your window and saw your neighbour snow blowing their LAWN? Probably think they were losing their mind a little bit? Well, that's what my neigbours would have seen last week - hubby had the snowblower on the lawn.  There was a really good reason for it though, and his craziness paid off!  The reason for the snowblower was to pile the snow higher than he could reach with the shovel - we had a huge dump of snow over 2 days and that was just perfect for his new found hobby!

For the last 2 winters, my husband has made the boys a snow slide in our front yard.  He can sometimes spend hours outside working on it so that it is "just right" for when they are out playing.

It has actually become one of my favorite family pastimes this winter - spending hours out front together and tobogganing.  It allows us to spend a lot of quality time together, enjoying the fresh air and getting exercise at the same time as having loads of fun.

  2. WOWZERS! That's A LOT of snow! You know what? My husband does the same thing! LOL! We have a lane...not a driveway. Hubs has to remove the snow with his tractor and he makes snow hills for the kids to play on! Fun!
