Oh, The Weather Outside is Frightful...!

We've had snow big time. It started snowing at around 10:00 on Sunday night and the ground was covered, like I haven't seen before. It was amazingly beautiful! We couldn't help but go out in the snow. So my sisters and I bundled up and headed out. Our neighbors were just as excited as we were and we all had the best time. We tried sledding on the road which was piled up with fluffy white snow. Everything was covered. We went for a walk in our neighborhood and stayed out in the snow until midnight, enjoying the heavy white flakes falling on us. My hair was a thick sheet of ice when we went inside. It took some time getting it all out of my hair!
Then the next morning we did our school and went out once again. It had started raining freezing rain before we went out and there was a thick layer of ice on top of the snow. Crunching it was so much fun... We experimented by putting maple syrup on the ice and eating it. And we even tried chocolate syrup! Some of the roads were closed and almost all the roads are iced over and slippery. Most schools are out, too. (Not ours!)
We've been enjoying our snow and we got a total of six and a quarter inches of snow! We've been very thankful for our warm cozy home.

  4. Oh I enjoyed these pictures, I always find photos of snow fascinating (I've never see real snow). The weather here is exactly the opposite to yours at the moment - sunny and very hot! :)

  6. Oh my, you certainly have a lot of snow!! It looks inviting...from my side of the computer. But as far as reality, I'm loving the 70* weather we're having....the shortsleeves, the warm sun, the budding trees...okay, I'll stop making you jealous. :-)

    Thanks for the great pics!

    Love,
