How's that global warming workin' out for ya???

Wow! I haven't seen this much snow in our parts in years. It was great!


The day started with a phone call at 5:30 am from The Prissy Princess's school saying school would be closed on Friday due to the inclement weather. I kept waiting for a call from my school, but it never came! So the girls stayed home with Daddy while I headed into school, hoping to be home by lunch. When I left that morning there was no snow. About 10:00 the blizzard began. We still didn't know if we would be getting out of school early! By 10:30 the Board of Education FINALLY made the call to let school out at 11:30. By the time I got home (at 12:30) the house looked like this!!! The snow didn't let up until around 5:00 or so that afternoon. In all I think we got about 3 inches! Man that global warming is just making me sweat! Ha!


P drove us around a little just to soak it all in and to get my picture fix. I saw some fences and barns that I HAD to have pictures of and he was sweet enough to drive me around to get the pics.








After the drive we came back for a quick snowball fight!


Ready, Aim, Fire!


Little Bit trying so hard to make the perfect snowball.









We had to go see what the creek looked like in the snow and what better way to get there than to ride the motorcycle.















It was definately worth the drive (walk for Mommy) down to the creek! It was so pretty and peaceful down there.









Of course we had to stop and eat a little snow on the way.





Shelby felt bad that I was the only one walking so she hiked through the knee high (her knees anyway!) snow with me to the creek. She's all up for a new adventure.






What is the one "must" on a snowy day like this??
(Besides throwing snowballs at Daddy?)



Build a snowman of course!!!



The girls with their snowman.






The rest are just some random pictures I took along the way. Hope you enjoyed the snow as much as we did!!

I really like the pictures of scenery. They are remarkable & look marketable to me. I definitely think you have a career awaiting you in the field of photography.
