First snow of 2012!


    Yesterday I woke up to the first big snow of the year! It snowed about an inch!!! For those of you who get a lot of snow that is nothing, but for those of us who don't get much it's amazing! =)

     Waking up just before seven o'clock, I was so excited to be up before school would start! So Tiffy, Jenny, and I scrambled out of bed, jumped in some snow clothes, and rushed out of the house to enjoy the first snow. The snow was fluffy and not good for snowball fights, but we tried anyway.

After about thirty minutes of snowball fighting, we decided to go for a walk. Walking down the road we enjoyed the beautiful snow-covered trees, houses, and rocks.


     At the park we slid down the cement slide, threw more snowballs at each other, ate some bread, and drank a hot Milo.

 Snow! Yummy!

 Snowball fights!


What are they doing?
 Oh, of course! Sticking their faces in the snow! =P




The snow was so beautiful!


 After we got tired of playing at the park, we came home, played a little more in our yard, and snapped some more pictures of the snowiness!

 Can you tell what that is?????  - broccoli plants!!

Dad's bonsai trees!

Stone lanterns are so pretty in the snow!!

As I sit writing this the snow in our town has mostly melted. But in our yard with the help of the shade from the mountain we still have snow. Hopefully we'll get some more big snows before winter is over!
