We knew we'd get a little snow today - but we weren't expecting to wake up to this:
It's so peaceful and pretty so early in the morning.
We got over a foot!
When the sun came out, I actually gasped. Another round of storm clouds coming in on the other side of the valley made this amazing blue!
(Not edited in the slightest - isn't the white against the blue amazing? And you can see a bit of the mountains (dark) above the house in the middle.)
Of course all the kids were outside pretty quick - finding their friends while the dads shoveled so we could all get to church (we were kinda hoping it'd be cancelled - shh!). I usually shovel, but not this year. Not yet anyway.
And of course they were all back outside after church.
Aaron made a huge pot of pasta sauce and set it out to cool in the snow. Now we need to remember to bring it in.
Inside, mittens and boots dry near the vents. Snowpants, hats, scarves, jackets hanging anywhere you can find space. This kinda drives me nuts.
(BTW, my neighbor knew I wanted one of these mitten dryers and found it for me in her Current catalog. WHY I didn't buy two (for the boots) I have no idea. Dumb.)
Inside after dinner: Cozy, warm and dry.
How about you? Any snow today? I guess we're supposed to get a little more tomorrow and then 'Blizzard-like conditions with lake effect snow' on Tuesday. Oh dear. Stay tuned!
