flurry

A light snow greeted us today. It sprinkled down from the dim clouds, dusting the dead trees and spreading itself in a thin coat over the cold ground. After many wishes that we wouldn't have another snow this winter, the flurries seemed to be taunting us, allowing the sun to peek out from behind the clouds every once in a while then going right back and falling faster.

I peered out my window, wondering how such an enchanting substance could be so unwelcome. Christmas is over, the holiday magic is gone, and the thought of snow now is just an annoyance. And yet, it is so enchanting...

its halloween, not christmas!

You know when you walk into a department store and its the first day of October and they have Christmas decoration before Thanksgiving? Or even halloween?
Weeellll, not that I don't adore Christmas, but c'mon, what happened to all the ghosts, witches and pumpkins? Oh yeah, they got rid of those right after Easter ;)

But today I was in the Christmas spirit. Was it the fact that the shops were all decked in red and green tinsel? Was it the fact that they had holiday specials? No, it was the fact that this morning when a sleepily looked out my window, I saw snow on our neighbor's rooftop. For real.
I was suddenly wide awake. I pulled on some sweatpants and a sweatshirt and grabbed my camera. As I stepped out the door and the cold air hit me, I never wanted Christmas to came more.

As I type this, the snow is melting rapidly. It was definitely nice while it lasted, but now we have to endure the mucky slush that comes after the soft white crystals.

Have you had your first snow yet?

Skiing!

We went skiing for the first time yesterday!

It was SOOOOO fun!!!

The first time I went down the "big hill" I was kind of going faster than I expected,

but I didn't crash until I got to the bottom! :D

Snowstorm

This has probably been my favorite winter. To adults it's a disaster but for the younger generation (including me) it's the best thing thats ever happened.

  Yep, so far its been a blast              
                       

We recently started snowboarding on a hill we made in our backyard. So fun!!

  And of course there's always the usual    

                sledding.
