Is is April 1?

I need to do a double take at my calendar. I thought there was an April Fools Day joke done to me, but no we have had the first day of spring according to the calendar but outside - this is what I see!

Yes, that would be 11 inches of freshly fallen snow on my picnic table!
Earlier in the day, we had yellow looking grass on our lawn. What is going on here?






This would be the snow hanging from my roof.
I guess I'm hiding Easter eggs inside my house today because otherwise we might lose
Shaeyn in the drifts!

ELEVEN INCHES!!!!DID I READ THAT RIGHT???????

This has got to be one for the records! I was teasing Jennifer about having to go to church on a dog sled but maybe I wasn't so far wrong! Wow! Hope you can get to church tomorrow! Take some pictures of those Easter eggs in the snow! That would be a pretty picture, but sad!

Happy Easter anyway!

It is ridiculous isn't it. At least the sun is shining and it's already melting.
It's supposed to be 47 on Wednesday so hopefull the snow will be gone soon.

You know, this happens every single year. We get a taste of sun and warmer temps only to be blasted one last time. We really need to wait for May and then we can claim spring :(

Um, aren't you the silly goose who loves winter?
