It snowed!

It snowed yesterday! We woke up to about an inch and a half of the beautiful, fluffy white stuff. Nina was so excited she got right into her snow pants, jacket, mittens, hat, scarf and boots and went outside.

It wasn't just snow, though. It was cold. Very cold. The news said yesterday set a record for lowest high on that date--28 degrees. And not a still air 28, but a frigid, blustry, gusty 28. Maggie and I did the best we could, but we didn't last as long out there as Nina did.

She really made the best of that inch and a half, too. Snow angels, attempts at sledding, snowballs... the girl just loves winter. God bless her little heart, I'm glad someone around here likes the season!

Today was another chiller, and tomorrow is only supposed to be marginally better. Brr. Here's to hoping this is just a quick snap and not the beginning of a God-awful winter. Where's my wood stove?
