Embracing

I forgot how magical the first snow of the season is.  Ours happened yesterday.  It wasn't a big snowfall.  Most of it has already disappeared but it speaks of what is to come -- whiteness, snowballs, snowmen, hot chocolate. Watching a local Christmas parade last night from the sidewalk with a full belly of pizza was the perfect way to end the day.






I am embracing the cold.

  1. it is always best to embrace what is, isn't it? i have to embrace the heat here. many times i just shut my curtains and pretend it's cold, grey and rainy out. but, it's always good to just get out and go to the beach and swim in the ocean.

  3. How can you be so close and yet we are still completely green. :) No snow for us yet. We did see some scattered flurries for the first time yesterday so I know it's coming. It really is so magical. I LOVE the first snowfall. It makes me feel so alive. Enjoy!

  7. our first snow came not too long ago and i always smile at the little girl inside that celebrates the first white of the season with such glee...and of course my boys' eagerness to get out and be a part of winter.

    beautiful photos!

  8. This is my absolute favorite time of year :) Seeing the snow fall for that first time each winter is so much fun and sometimes I wonder who is more excited... the children or me *grin*.
