Snow Day *S*!

Yesterday school was called off and we enjoyed the morning as the snow fell silently and made everything seem crisp and clean. It is 24 hours later and there is no change.
Cold temperatures and the snow is not melting but remaining the same.
Therefore, no school again today. We do not mind. It is brightly lit from the snow outside and although it is really too cold to go out and enjoy it, we simply look out our windows and keep ourselves warm by the fireplace. Hot chocolate again today is what we will have and left over broccoli & cheese soup with a grilled cheese sandwich for Bri and a salad for me. Perfect weather for snuggling and playing board games that Santa brought for Christmas.

Snow in Bowling Green.

Beautiful and white.

We have photos of our new house from Summer, Fall, and now Winter Snow. We will wait for Spring to show the flowers in bloom on the trees.

For now, we are enjoying the cold. After all, it is Winter.


The snow is very soft. It is not even wet enough to create snowballs, really.
But still, it is fun just the same.
I am thinking...tomorrow will a day more of the same. Temperatures will not be above freezing until next week. So, we will wait patiently and enjoy what the heavens give us.

My Snow Kids!

I get up way before dawn each and everyday. My early morning ritual of coffee on, TAWG, and then the computer is just what I do. This week my routine has changed a bit and I have been pretty happy about it. I am busier than usual and it keeps my mind occupied and thoughts driven in a different direction that is positive. Several weeks ago when I was at an Art Festival I met a lady that made Snow Kids. She makes them out of old quilts and bath robes. She tea dyes some of them and I just could not believe the price she was selling these little cuties for. So, I bought 2 to sit on a sled that I once used as a young girl in Germany. I of course painted the sled several years ago and added poinsettia accents and now it is finally complete with two Snow Kids. They are my new Christmas favorite within our home. I simply added some ribbon to one of the kids as it seemed the Christmas Branch was rather bare. I thought I would brag about them today.
I hope you are having a wonderful day and have a fabulous weekend!
