Snow Day (For Real This Time)

What a crazy week this has been!  It's not that we didn't do anything.  It's more that I haven't had the time to organize my thoughts and pictures to write about it.

By far the most exciting thing that happened is the 'big' snow that came on Tuesday.  You have to understand that any snow that sticks is defined as 'big' snow in these here parts!  Y'all, it made me wish to be in Vancouver for the Olympics.  It was so pretty when the big fat flakes started floating from the sky.  It was at that time that I realize how woefully unprepared I was to let Cora play in the snow.  I know you will laugh at her mismatched and random snow outfit.  Truly, it was not a very good snow outfit, but it did allow a few minutes of play in the small white patches in our backyard.

Yes, that's right.  She is wearing blue jeans and regular shoes; a hoodie and a denim jacket; a scarf, hat and mittens.  Clearly, we do not experience snow that often!

And, with me being home with her, if it is too cold, we just stay in.  Next season, I do believe we will invest in a winter coat!

She had a lot of fun crunching it underfoot.

And, when she did a face plant and got all of her knit wear soaked, it was time to go in.  It snowed quite a bit - I realize that quite a bit is a relative term!  By the end of the afternoon, we had quite an accumulation on our patio.  

(Yes, I know 'quite an accumulation' is subjective.)  Nevertheless, I enjoyed our little slice of winter!
