December ABC's...S is for Snow.

"The first fall of snow is not only an event, it is a magical event. You go to bed in one kind of a world and wake up in another quite different, and if this is not enchantment then where is it to be found?" ~J.B. Priestley


Things I love about snow....


Watching kids catch snowflakes on their tongue.

Waking up in the morning & listening to the radio to see if schools are closed.

Sitting on the sofa, reading a book, and watching the snow gently falling outside of my window.

Building a snowman.

Going sledding and then coming inside for a cup of hot chocolate (with mini-marshmallows).

Standing at the top of the mountain(in Vail,Park City or Jackson Hole)& looking out at the vistas.

Putting the finishing touches of "snow" on our Department 56 Snow Village.

Looking at the different types of animal tracks that are in our yard after a new snowfall.

Taking pictures of the trees & bushes covered in snow.

Taking pictures of the kids playing in the snow.


...about the only thing that I don't love about snow is driving in it.
