Hurricane Sandy - First Round

Here is a first round of pictures we captured after Sandy visited Meadow Lane.

Left Back Fence Dog Area

Middle Back Fence Dog Area

Right Back Fence Dog Area

Yes - That tree was TALL. Covered the entire back yard.

Took about 2 hours to cut, chop, drag and pile.

Back of Pool Fence

The massive roots of the tree that fell on the Back of Pool Fence

Jay took a picture with me standing in front of it. 

Ridiculous. Oh and its still there. 

How do you get rid of something like that?

I only know how to do it like this....

and that is MUCH smaller than this!!!

Crashed tree on the left side of the yard

This one crashed our tinier spruce and baby oak.

Not sure if they will make it.

Gutters were flying!

This was our neighbors front yard... ON MONDAY!

This was BEFORE Sandy actually REALLY came through.

And here is her yard on Tuesday morning. 

All 4 of her large pines came down.

And toppled the power lines. 

She wasn't the cause of our power outage by any means.

Down Wakeman Hill, there was at least 3 large trees that came down on the power lines and on one house.

All are gone as of today, except for the one still leaning on that house but no one is hurt.

Jack-O-Lantern #1

Here is the first.... more to come!

Needs maybe 2 or 3 more battery operated flickering candles and I think its good to go.

However, I am thinking he's scarier in the daylight than at night. 

Looks like a smile more than 'I want to eat you'..... What do you think?

Early Christmas Cards - Redone

I have to thank my Mom for sharing this.... one for those early Christmas presents from us to you!
 

This puts a whole new spin to the phrase "family tree"! 
 

Dad realizes that if the 40 pounds of tinsel catches fire on that tree, he has a better chance of survival without the flammable matching pj's. 

I don't know who's more horrified, Santa or the "Death Becomes Me" kids.  . 

 

Speechless (I just hope that they have money tucked away somewhere in those fig leaves for counseling for the kids). 

I can see why they won't let you have children of your own. 

WTF! 

Seriously, that was the shirt you decided to wear for the family photo with Santa? 

It probably seemed like a better idea in their heads. 

Either Grandma is getting her sexy on, or Mom is looking for her youth - stop looking. 

OMG - it's like Christmas "camo"! 

What's with the Clown??? And the eyebrows???????? 

Lil' Jo may be seeing the Baby Jesus sooner than he thinks

What was the motivation behind this one - Merry Christmas from Mom, the kids and Dad the porn star?

Yeah, that'll keep him quiet for a while. 

Get a room. On second thought, our hands are full, never mind. 

Holy Christmas Batman, Batgirl, Batdog and Robin. 

The annual Christmas picture of the "I'm never getting laid" club. 

Is Santa being held hostage? 

Why is it that people think it's okay to make a complete a#* of Grandma. 

"Oh Joseph, he looks just like you!" 

These guys are trying way too hard to be bad. It's painful. 

Yikes! 

Merry Christmas from the Dork family, thank you, thank you very much. 

To you, an your kin, we wish you peace and joy! 

Okay.. 

They have entirely too much time on their hands to dream this one up.

I don't know what's more horrifying - the family pj's or the hideous furry couch. 

Get your snowman on! 

The first signs of little Jimmy's psychotic break. 

This takes Christmas to a whole new level

This is wrong on so many levels. 

Hey kid, is that your balloon, or your just really happy its Christmas?

The Schubert's Men vs Women Annual Sweater Shot. Tragic.
