Winter wonderland--pics!

We had a major snowfall last night, about 18 inches! We spent all day shoveling out. My husband's little car still isn't going to get past the driveway!

My favorite tree in the whole yard. I made hubby build his shed somewhere else so this tree could stay standing.

My snowy house!

I can't wait to get the dog sled out!!

Wow!! :eek: That is sooo gorgeous!! :D I bet your snowdogs are lovin' it! :D

It looks so pretty.....as long as it's not here LOL :p

we are supposed to get an inch tonight . That would be ok I have to go to town in the morning so after 2pm it can do all it wants.
Can't wait for sled pictures.

LOL! Now THAT is snow!!! It looks so beautiful but I'm glad I dont have to shovel it this winter. Many people here ask me what snow is like as they have never seen it!

All i can say is W:eek:W, how beautiful. Gorgeous photos thankyou so much for sharing them.

WOW!! those are beautiful pics! where is the snowman??

I can't wait till it starts snowing here!! :D :D

For me its useless to wait for snow!

I can only open the freezer for a similar effect:D or is it different? Never seen snow:( but i think i'll die of cold if i did. :confused:

Its beautiful as long as you keep it there dear. Snow flies and then I can't be outside as much as I like.

That is so pretty! Just as long as it stays there! I'm not quite ready for our first snow yet!

My gosh, I've never been up to YT but just dying to. That favourite tree pic belongs on a postcard.

Question: when it's that cold and snowy, where do the dogs sleep at night? Do you have a special shed for them?

Depends on the dog. They each have their own insulated dog house that is filled with straw. There's enough of those around the yard that they could all sleep outside regardless of the weather. As long as it's not too windy, they prefer to sleep out in the snow. They don't use their doghouses much. When it was snowing on Saturday, they were very active--running and wooing alot! Snowstorms are fun for huskies!

However, I usually have several of them inside....Goldie sleeps in the arctic entry (enclosed winterized porch) with her boyfriend, Chase; Sleet & Preacher haven't spent a night outside in years. Sleet sleeps beside my bed on her princess pillow, Preacher has a bed in the coat closet. (he put it there on his own). Pingo, Chum, Pacer and Franklin are usually inside too--Pacer sleeps in the porch near Preacher, Pingo sleeps on the couch, Chum sleeps by the bed, and Franklin prefers to sneak onto the bed during the night! Hobo likes to sleep near the woodstove. Most nights there are between 8-10 dogs inside. I've had 17 in at once when it was -45C. :eek:

Glaicer, you live in Winterland paradise! ;) BEAUTIFUL pictures!!

:eek: Beautiful snowy pics. Bet the dogs are loving it!

Hubby won't go for that! I think there were two or three up that night. They have their own futon bed in the living room so several sleep on that--no annoying human feet to have to avoid! Franklin is our biggest bed sleeper right now. He just recently got over his fear of the furniture and now he can't get enough!:D

Great pictures!! Snow looks so peaceful!!

your "dog" doings stories are soooo sweet......what a loving household that must be! alllllll that snow......havent seen anywhere near that much snow since i lived in madison, wisconsin......we MAY get a teensy-weensy bit of snow thanksgiving morning!!!

Wonderful pictures and great stories. I can snow here quite heavily but usually it warms up after a week or so, so we cannot really know how it is:)
