Winter Wonderland



 
Our little part of the world got dumped with snow in a winter storm yesterday, and I thoroughly enjoyed watching every minute of it yesterday from my warm, cozy house. It was snowing when we woke up, and was still snowing when we went to bed last night! When Matt opened the door this morning to go brush off his vehicle and get it warmed up before he went to work, I couldn't believe how much snow we got! The snow was almost to his knees as he waded out to the Jeep!!!! After he left for work, I bundled up and went out to take some pics. It is absolutely GORGEOUS outside, because all of the trees are absolutely laden with snow. Even the trunks of the trees have snow sticking all the way up one side of them. I haven't quite figured out why, though, because it is not packy snow at all--very fine and powdery! The pictures don't really do it justice, but they are all my limited photography skills could handle! *wink*
Come take a walk with me through the winter wonderland at our house!
 
 
 
Our house is tucked back in off the road a little way making it feel very cozy on stormy, wintery days.
 
 
 
 
Looking both directions-up and down- our lane.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Isn't it just beautiful???
I'm enjoying the snow from my windows today, after spending the morning out in it. The forecast is calling for more snow the next three days...I'm hoping they're right!! *smile*

We woke up to.....

......... a white world!!!!!!
 

 
It started snowing last night just after we got out of prayer meeting, and must have snowed into the night quite a bit. Our porch looked like it had maybe an inch on it this morning.
 
 
 
 
It's not the beautiful kind of snow that sticks on the trees and makes the world look all lacy, because it is very windy and any that might have stayed on the trees is blown off. But, I'm not complaining...it's snowy and white outside, and that makes me happy!! :-)
 
 
I'm sitting in front of my fireplace all cozy and warm with a cup of coffee, just enjoying looking out the windows. I'll probably soon add a new scented tart to my tart burner that may or may not have a hint of Christmas smell in it *wink*, and maybe light a candle or two. BUT.... the best part of all... the forecast is calling for more snow today!! I hope it is right!!! =)

*Cozy*

Snowflakes falling outside my window...

A cozy fireplace burning in the living room...

Foster and Allan songs playing on my iPad...

My man wondering if we had any soup to eat on a chilly day...

No dessert for supper tonight...

Equals a cozy afternoon in my kitchen!!

AND an onion/vegetable soup with peanut butter picnic cake for dessert!!
