Yup. It snowed here today despite my protests that snow was a myth. Here is what we woke up to see.

Here’s a close up

Normally you can see the hills in the distance from my sunroom, but check this out. Also the trees are beautiful.

Here is Becca trying to make a snowman. I did eventually help.

And here it is, small, but we got cold! Us southerners aren’t used to freezing weather.

AFTER we were done, Meaghan brought us the hat and scarf, but I managed top get her picture, too. See the snow already melting?

And by the afternoon, most of it was gone, except the snowman!

    I’m jealous!
    The last time I saw snow, it was MAN MADE! lol
    We went to the snow fields and there was a minimal snow fall so they had the machines out making fake snow for the skiers!
    Our winters are nothing compared to the Northern Hemisphere.

    I love the snowman! I want to make a snowman. We have enough snow… but i never get around to it. Maybe if it snows today.

    The trees are beautiful. I love snow on the trees.

    Tina, The last time I saw snow was when we went to Michigan for Christmas one year. This is only the sixth time since 2000 it has snowed here. Not the sixth year, the sixth TIME.
