There’s a major snowstorm a-brewing today.
The weatherman says 8 to 12 coming our way.
I love winter, to a certain extent.
The snow is wonderful and our time is well-spent.
(I just know that poem is Nobel Prize-worthy. Please do not reprint without permission!)
These are some of the things we like to do when it snows.
We make snow hearts.
In the woods, always beware of snowball attacks!
We build igloos. This has only happened two times that I can remember. You need the perfect snow and weather combinations to produce snow that can be cut into chunks. Notice the bare patch behind the red-hooded son? That is where we cut all of the snow chunks to build the igloo.
We I make vats full of hot cocoa and café au lait.
Does it snow where you live? What do you do when it snows? Whatever it is, enjoy!

Thanks – he is a sweetie, too. Hope you don’t get snowed in this weekend. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Merci!
Your boy with the snow heart … what a little heartbreaker *smile – I love winter when it’s supposed to be winter – and I can’t be without café au lait.Fanastic photos of your boys.
Merci! Glad you enjoyed the photos. He is a sweetheart!
He truly look like it too … with a cheeky streak.
Love the snow hearts! We go to Tahoe to enjoy the snow. I have the same china and soooo enjoy a cup of hot brew in it! Cheers!
I would be very happy to live on the California coast. Ski in Tahoe and come home to my warm, sunny beach house. That would be perfect. And how funny that you have the same china! Great minds think alike and prefer the same china patterns! 🙂
Wonderful photos…all are darling…Really like the igloo…took some time I bet…but, when you are having fun…
I’ll take a cup of cafe’ au lait please…
No snow for us…just an inch or two all winter and actually looks like an early spring…
Early spring? Where are you? I’ll be right over. At this rate, our kids will be lucky if they are out of school before the 4th of July. The older I get, the more I understand the reasons that people want to live in Florida, California, or on the French Riviera. Warm and sunny is where I’d rather be!
Louisville Ky…OHIO VALLEY… so that could change at any moment!
Oh. I just finished reading The Prodigal Summer by Barbara Kingsolver. It takes place in southern Appalachia and reminded me a lot of where my friend lives in North Carolina. I’m wondering if the setting is similar to area outside of Louisville. I’ve been through KY, but never stopped. Will have to put that on my to-do list. Anyway, I recommend the book!
stop by sometime… I think you would enjoy our city…
