I Heart Snow Day

Who would've thought we'd wake up to SNOW.  I know I'm not the first or the last that will be talking about this day.  How fun.  It hasn't snowed (and stuck) like this for 20 years.  I was only 5 I believe.  We made a huge snowman in the front yard in 1988 too.  But in 2008 I had to go to work.  It was a beautiful drive there though.  Highland Road was gorgeous.  I managed to snap several photos before going into work.  So here's to snow @ 6:30am :)  If only I believed it was going to snow I would've woke up earlier just to play in it.  By the time I put real clothes on to take a pic of the front, the kids a couple of houses down already built a snowman as tall as me.  How did they know before me??  hehe
The Backyard
Bogey was so not into the snow.  He just cautiously stood on the deck.  It was hilarious!
The front of the house.  Look at the ice/snow on the driveway.  It reminded me of a slushy.
A view from the front door looking out into the yard.
The deck/storage shed in the side yard.  My poor plants.  I would have brought you in had I known it was going to snow on you.   Sorry
The poor Oleander in the backyard.  Too bad it didn't have all the snow on it when we took the pics at 1pm.  It's the same bush, only 6+ hours earlier. 

Christmas Card Pics

Usually I am one of the first to get my Christmas Cards out. I tried really hard to get them out with the invites, but I didn't really love any of the pics I was using for them.

But I guess it pays to wait (what I've learned from Markus) and IT SNOWED. So I took off early at noon to come home just to take our Christmas Card pic with the SNOW. And Markus was not happy about this being off early. It was the last thing he wanted to do on his day off. So help me decide what face of Markus' is the most tolerable so I can get these out this weekend.

Hope everyone had fun in the snow. I felt like I was driving in the mountains while driving down Highland Rd. to get to work this morning. I'll post my pics from 6:30am later. :)
