You'll never guess what's going on in Massachusetts!

It's STILL snowing! Those are our mail boxes. Since this picture was taken we've received MORE snow. The mailboxes are now completely buried. My mail comes out of a hole in a snow bank. I'm not kidding. I can't even raise the flag for outgoing mail.

 Some of us don't mind the snow all that much.

 I should say that some of us don't mind lying in the snow while Mommy takes pictures of them.

 We had this great idea that we would go for a leisurely stroll in downtown Great Barrington on Saturday and take some pictures. Silly us, we forgot for a moment that it was 8 degrees with a wind-chill of -100. We hurried from store to store before finally hibernating in a coffee shop for some fancy over-priced hot cocoa. (Yes, it was delicious.) We did manage a few quick shots.

 And then it started to snow. And snow and snow and snow. We got 6 more inches of snow that afternoon. It made for some great pictures outside though. My sister is an excellent model. I didn't have to do ANY editing to these. She's that gorgeous. ;-)

 Then it was my turn:
