Falling Snow

So remember how I said we had all this snow hanging off our roof?

Well not anymore...... @ 4 this morning we heard a big boom  & the whole house shook. I got up to make sure that everything was okay . When I got back to our bed room Dennis said the snow fell off the roof. Okay no big deal. He jumps out of bed grabs a flash light and heads to the back door, Only to find out that the snow had covered our heater exhaust vent .  So he comes back and asks what time it is and starts to get dressed while telling me whats wrong.  So I go to the back door to look and this is what I find up against the door.

All this snow and ice. we are luck that it did not break any windows or our double glass doors. So my sweet Husband ( who has to be up a 5:15 to go to get ready 4 work) goes out in the freezing cold and starts shoveling to uncover the exhaust vent @ 4 in the morning. All the while hitting huge pieces of  ice while shoving.

The huge piece of Ice that he had to move to get to our exhaust vent.

We get it all uncovered and then move what snow we can away from the doors to shut them only to find out the all the weight that fell on the doors had sprung them. so our doors don't shut right and if you don't look them they pop open.  Just our luck. Trying to go back to sleep was not easy ( at least 4 me) I was wide awake by now. I think I finally went back to sleep right before dennis' alarm went off for him to get up.  It was an eventful morning for us. But at least I can see out the back door for now. I guess that's a plus.
