When is global warming going to start???

We keep hearing about global warming, but it's not happening around here yet. This winter has been especially cold and especially snowy. I heard on the TV last week that the official snowfall of the 2010/2011 winter season here has been 28" so far. That's a lot for us.

Our last snow storm was yesterday (Saturday) early morning. It snowed another 4" or so. Here are some photos of yesterday morning...


Our dog loves to play in the snow, especially putting her face in the fresh snow!



It's nice having 4 boys at home to shovel the snow!



Our street



Looks like 4" to me












Snow fight



Looks like Michael won this round? (See all the snow on Jeremy's head?)





Trying to make a snow cave



Not too big of a snow cave...

You can't win 'em all...

Jeremy has had two robotics competitions this school year. Here are some photos of the St. Louis regional competition. He is the team captain this year.

We have lots of photos of this competition, because...

Their team won!

Team #3592












Oh the second competition? We don't have too many photos of it, because...

Well they didn't win but that's not why we don't have any photos. We just forgot to charge to battery on the camera before we went. Whoops.

They did qualify for the state championship, so we'll try to take some photos of that one!
