 A get together with friends before we moved.  A virtual feast that included cheese fondue!
 I tried to stack most of our boxes in the living room so that the guys helping us move wouldn't have to go tramping through the place trying to find all the boxes.  We had about 6 guys helping out and they had us loaded up in the truck in an hour and a half.  Good thing because it was -20 degrees outside!  Fortunately it wasn't snowing or windy. But it sure was COLD!
 Here is the view you have from the front entry of our new place.  And of course everything is an absolute disaster right now.  Once things return to relative normalcy I'll post more pictures and you can really get a feel for the place.  It is WAY bigger than our last home, something we're all adjusting to.  Munchkin is a bit fearful of all the space, especially that dark basement with all it's imaginative possibilities. 
 This is what the front door looked like on the evening we moved it.  Notice all the snow.  It had been snowing every day for days and days and DAYS. 
 I took this photo 4 days after the move.  Notice our little snow wall on top of the fence is starting to keel over?  Notice anything else??  Like a guy walking on the roof in the background?  He's shoveling snow off the roof.  'Nough said.

 Little Dude is so proud of the fact he can hold Sprout while standing up.  Munchkin really wants to do the same....but his arms aren't quite as long!
This is what our neighbour's car looked like the night we moved in.  There was just SO MUCH SNOW!  A day or so after we were in it stopped snowing and a little plow came through to clean up the parking lot.  They took away about 7 loads of snow between a dump truck and a pickup that hauled a large wagon.  Hokey Smokey!

A short Sprout clip.  :)
