Snow, glorious Snow!

Although I was born in Flagstaff, Arizona, home of the Snow Bowl, I am a desert baby. I grew up in the Eastern plains of New Mexico. We did get snow there, twice. It gets cold in the desert, sometimes. So, when I moved to Denver, CO right out of high school, it was a joke to me. Snow? How do I live in snow? Denver brought cold, snow and two car accidents on ice. Then I moved to Logan, Utah. I still couldn't drive in the snow, but in the Cache Valley mountains, there is nothing more beautiful than a snow storm. Well, now, we live in Middletown, Rhode Island. We have had more snow this winter, so far, than I can remember my whole life. We've had about 18 inches combined, so far. I love it! It's beautiful and makes the whole place look enchanting. A few things I don't like about snow...whenever the kids come in from playing, everything is wet and soggy and has to be layed out to dry all over the house; it's kind of a pain to bundle everyone up to go anywhere, and...the truck is a mess, inside and out. Other than those things, I love the snow. Yesterday, the kids were out of school, so we went outside to play in the snow. We bundled up real good and went out for about 2 hours. Jackson only lasted 20 minutes. The snow was just to deep, he could hardely walk around, he just kept fallng. Anyway, here are some pics. Let it snow some more!
