Hooray for the Snow Removal Team
at the Honey House!

This week I decided to participate in a new blog carnival called Tuesday's Tribute, because even though I am the author of this blog it's not all about me, right?

Tuesday's Tribute
Yet Another Jay and Deb Production.

This week I would like to give a shout out to my wonderful, fantastic snow removal team. It's that time of year again where it seems that every other day we get a new batch of white stuff dumped upon us.


Honey Daddy and Jonah are tireless in their efforts to remove every last bit of snow from my enormous driveway. Honey Daddy grew up in Arizona and is intolerant of pavement that is not clean and clear. Jonah just enjoys being outside, helping Daddy shovel. They both do a really great job!

Can you believe my two year old has his own shovel?

Are we done yet?

January and February are not my favorite months. There is not enough sun and too much snow! I guess I can at least be grateful that I don't have to slip around in the ice and snow because of my enthusiastic snow removal crew.

Thanks guys!

Just as a fun photo comparison, here is a picture of Jonah from last year in our snowbank after a big storm.

Here is a picture of him on top of the other snowbank after a big storm this year. He actually climbed up there all by himself!

Jonah's enthusiasm for snow and winter makes it a bit more bearable for me. Thanks buddy!

  8. on first glance, i am very jealous! we have been crossing our fingers for snow for weeks! however, it is easy to forget about all the work involved (especially since i am not a member of our snow removal team)!

    your crew deserves hugs and kisses, and maybe some cocoa!

  13. Love your post! We all do the same thing, although we have 5 shovels and six people so it gets a little silly here! How many memories the two of them are making! Very Cool!

  15. I wish I had a snow removal team! LOL! My kids love the snow, but to work in it at all...my daughter says to me "Mom, haven't you ever heard of child labor laws?!" What, where did that come from?! She's 12, now she's researching CLL's?! Oh good grief!

    It is pretty but when you have that much it could be a pain!

  21. Wish your guys would have been around my place a few weeks ago. I do not recommend shoveling snow with a regular old shovel...it sucks.
