In Which I Gush About Snow. Snow!

Today it snowed!  It has snowed three times this year, but the first time it was really light and I missed it, and the second time it snowed overnight and just a tiny bit stuck, so this is the first time I really got to see it.  It didn't stick because it is 40 degrees outside, but I don't care, snow is cool!

Casper and I went out in it for a little walk.  This sounds silly because technically I know that snow is just frozen water, but it surprised me how wet we got!  I guess I expected that since snowflakes seem lighter and airier than rain that I would get less wet....or something like that.

Then we came inside and I may or may not have listened to Christmas music while watching the snow come down and imagining that we were having a white Christmas.  My tree is still up so it was fairly easy to imagine. 

Snow is magical!  And beautiful and festive.  It makes a dreary winter day exciting and cozy.

  1. Oh you crack me up!!!! Glad you got out to enjoy it. I was going to let the kids go and play in it, but they really wanted to go and take a nap. So I just sat and stared at it....for longer than most people would :)
