This is my happy face because it Finally Snowed!!

 And then, even better, the sun came out so that it was beautiful and enjoyable to play in!

"z"now man.

 Making Snowmen. We had plenty of sticks from the back yard to use as arms.

 Hog, staring out the window at the fun times. She is so jealous of us when we go out front. She paces and whines but I know that if I let her out she would just head straight across the street, 100 mph, for the neighbors dog Oso.

 

One side of the house is without gutters and happens to drain onto the steep cement driveway for a short space. It makes for a wonderful ice slide apparently. 

 

T. finds sliding downhill on ice a lot more satisfying than rolling a snowball.

 This has been such a wonderful winter so far. Enough cold days to remember the season and enough snow on the mountains to get a "look at that gorgeous mountain!!"  exclamation out of me every day.

 We are blessed to live in such a beautiful place! I hope I never get over it.
