It is Dog Derby time!
Friday during the day, my class went up to watch the Dog Derby.
It was fun to see all of the dogs.
The Siberian Huskies are my favorite.
Later that night Andrew's parents came up for the weekend!
Saturday we drove around and found some teams out on the actual trail.
That was really fun to see!
We also went by the church parking lot to show off the snow sculptures to Andrew's parents. (Now you must realize we saw these on Saturday and we did them on Tuesday at mutual and WEDNESDAY there was a HUGE wind storm that came through! So, this is what is left of them!
Top left...golden plates done by the Young Women...top right...a hand cart (looked so much better before it fell.) done by the Teachers... Bottom left....Nauvoo Temple done by the Priests...Bottom Right....I have no clue..the 12 year old Deacons were in charge of that one!
The Nauvoo Temple actually won 2nd place in the Dog Derby Snow Sculpture Contest! Whoo Hoo!
This weekend we got SNOW! A ton of SNOW! It started snowing Saturday afternoon and did not stop until Monday morning. Insane! As you can see we have a some snow in our front yard. Most of it was there already, but if you look down at our feet you can see what had accumulated during the weekend. But, honestly...we almost have a snow cave to our front door!
Here are some more pics of how much snow fell this weekend. Andrew's dad kept saying how much he loved the snow, so we had him shovel the walk! All of the snow on the car had fallen this weekend. Can you tell how high the snow is on the road? It was about a foot-foot and a half..in just one weekend!
We were just about to start shoveling the driveway when Shawn Lenz came down the street in his tractor. He offered to clear out our driveway for us! AWESOME! We were so thankful for him.
Ok...there is this mound in the front of our house. you can't even see our house! This is definitely the MOST snow we have ever seen in our lives! Is there really a yard under all this snow?
These pics are taken on our back porch. Talk about a ton of snow! I am not even standing on the bottom of all the snow.
Maybe one of these days it will all melt away!
It was a great weekend with Andrew's parents.
We played many games and even got to eat at the Frostop!
Love that restaurant!
It has been a nice relaxing weekend.
Thanks for coming Mom and Dad Walker!
