So Much to Do, So Little Time

One of the exciting things about October and November is the need to get ready for the winter season, especially in the snowy northern Utah area. In order to do so, Amanda and I cut down a tree encroaching on our house; cut back several tree branches; raked leaves; caulked windows; waterproofed our chimney; and turned off our half-working sprinkling system. In addition, Amanda's family came up to help us with other items on our to-do list and helped us turn it into a done list: fixed the dryer; installed vent covers; patched and painted a coat closet; insulated around a door-frame; fixed an electrical outlet, and repaired trim around our kitchen floor. Just as we were finishing these projects, guess what happened? It began to snow.

So, Amanda and I understand the many projects that need to be completed before the snow flies. What projects have you and your families been working on to finish before the winter snow comes? If you are in warmer states, are there any things you try to get done despite there being no snow?

Well, in our warmer climate we're doing our fall planting right now. Other than that, not much changes. We're glad you got so much done! Enjoy the snow!
