Winter Wonderland

A couple of weeks ago, we had a real heavy fog followed by freezing temps over night.  I snapped a few pictures of the "snow" that crystalized and covered everything, thinking it would as close to snow we could get this season.

The first snow fall of the season came over the weekend.  I don't think the kids could have been happier!  There was as much anticipation of waking up to a snow covered ground as there was for Christmas morning.  The snow did however, foil our plans to get to church as it took Jonathan 2 hours to dig ourselves out to the street, thanks to the 3 feet of snow the snow plow shoved into our driveway.  My man has some real brawn and even at that, there is something about heaving wet and heavy snow (not exactly the white fluff like in Michigan) in the drizzling rain, then later turned snow that really takes it out of you.  Makes for a good excuse to have a pot of coffee on all day.

This is our snow in Leinì...
