"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?"
– JB Priestly
It was serendipity if ever there was that. A three day weekend and totally snowed in. A pile of kids spilling out of the doors and into this white wonderland. It wasn't terribly cold so it was a challenge to keep people "properly dressed." There is also someone eating snow in almost every frame from the day. Before long the snow was airborne and they were dodging in and out of hedges and snowballs were launched up and over walls. The washer and dryer were humming into the night with wet mittens and jackets and socks.













What, may I ask, is the punishment for getting snow in one’s father’s ear? π
Abbey so adorable intently and quietly making the snow man. those big girls and the lovely long hair …. How do they go in the snow? Lots of hair washing?
Just beautiful pictures! We just got an inch last night. Snow is transforming.
My boys also always always want to eat the snow. It’s constant!
Hi! Introduced to you by Yvonne R. Your blog is lovely and your photography is AMAZING!
There is nothing like a big snow! Especially one where it will actually stick together enough to make a big snowman.
Lovely!
Wish we had your snow. It will be another dry year. The hay last year was $13.50 a bale, up from $5 just two years before.
