First Snow

I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving......It was such a beautiful day here in the woods. It snowed pretty much all day. We had our xmas tree lit outside the window. It was a breath taking sight. We got about 4-5 inches.

By noon we were enjoying our thanksgiving meal. I don't make to much variety...It confuses Tom. But as usual he said it was the best I've ever made. He tells me that all the time....I call it job security. : ) The girls enjoyed too.

I did finally get the last deer cut up. I skinned and cut it up the day before thanksgiving. I figured out that Tom was tired of processing deer even though all he did was skin it" in the house" sooo I did it all and he was "HAPPY" Actually I was amazed he helped with three of them..........For that I am grateful!

Yesterday was "Plow The Yard" day.........I wish I was kidding. He plows most of the yard..the ditch both sides and a good quarter mile of the county road if the snow plow hasn't gone and of coarse the dive way.

If you ask him WHY he plows the yard...his answer is " so if we get a lot of snow this winter we will have somewhere to go with it."

Anyone have any idea WHY I don't have any grass on that side of the yard in the spring? Tom says it's because we need some good black dirt hauled in. I suggested maybe it was because with no snow cover.........Tom says "naw, that don't hurt that grass any"

The girls and I chased around the yard and I shoveled around the house till Tom was done plowing. Toms good about doing these things that I can't as long as he sees me putzing around like I'm helping. You know...Like I do the shoveling while he plows with the 4-wheeler and in the summer he does the riding lawnmower while I do the push mower........You have to laugh if you knew the way Tom was......The way I see it.....I don't need to get on the tread mill... ; )
