The First Snowfall ... and Snowstorm.

I was going to post about the bookcase I refinished...then this happened: 


Day 1:

Got home from school to find about 3 inches at our house. Down below there was just rain and snow mix.  Amelia was thrilled...lets shovel and throw snowballs.



The next morning ...



Dad had not put on his studded tires so he took Amelia to school.  I joined them and figured I would still get my walk in by walking home from there...up the mountain.  Amelia and I got to play in the white stuff a bit before school started as Rob left to go to work.

It was pretty.


Until I started up the hill and heard SNAP CRASH of falling limbs due to the trees not losing their leaves yet.



Lots more snow on the mountain and I just walked down the middle of the road as I could hear cars coming and going and could get out of the way of the sliding ones. 


Probably not the best idea I have ever had :)

Later on the skies began to clear.



Day 3:  The Aftermath

Amelia had to show me the work they did during recess.





We made our first snowman...and her baby that evening.





So..the winter begins.
