Winter is Here

We had our first snow of the season on thursday. It wasnt much and if you didnt look right away in the morning you would have missed it b/c it was gone by the afternoon. There was just enough to cover the top of the van. Then this morning we woke up to this:
Needless to say whether I am ready for winter or not it is here. Not only did it snow but it was a wet and heavy snow and broke a few branches in our yards. I was woken up last night to a loud noise and then Hannah running into our room crying my name. Once I woke up a bit I realized that the power had gone out. After a bit we realized that a bunch of branches from the tree in our backyard broke and took out our service line that provided us with power. So after a few hours of no power the city worker was able to get it fixed.

The irony of the whole situation is that Bryan and I were getting bids to see if it would be better to have someone else come and trim our trees or if Bryan and a friend could do it together. One of his worries was that it would snow and a branch would land on our house.
