storm of the century

here in south-eastern wisconsin, we're still digging out from the storm of the century! wednesday we got a crazy 16.5" of snowfall in 24 hours! there's only one other storm in history that was worse. (1924 brought 18 inches in 24 hours) it was completely insane. people were stranded on highways behind accidents that couldn't be cleared and the national guard was out on snowmobiles helping people who were stuck.

here's a photo during the storm.....this isn't even all of it!


here's a photo i took today of our poor bush just covered in snow and icicles.


needless to say, the kids had a snow day and even daddy (who works for a bank) got half of the day off!
