SNOW!!!!

It's a blizzard (Ha!) but that doesn't happen very often in our neck of the woods so we capitalized on the opportunity to play in it.

We had to take this picture of ourselves... and my arms aren't too long but we captured us, Up Close and Personal!!
Playing on the play set, going down the slide and eating icicles!

Pausing to rest after a fun slide to the bottom of the hill
Every year we praise God for this woodburning stove, for either heating our house when we have no other heat options (which has been the case at some point in each winter for 13 of our 15 years in this house!), cooking on/in last year during the ice storm becuase of no electricity for five days or for warming us after a fun day in the snow.

Oh Yes, thank goodness for that stove and for the smore that you made in it yesterday (shhh) all alone! : )

What a real winter wonderland we have!
