“Snow provokes responses that reach right back to childhood.”
~Andy Goldsworthy~
Good morning! Guess what? It snowed! I won’t be taking a snow day today or anything like that but it’s OK, 3-4 inches makes me as happy as if there were a blizzard.
Yesterday afternoon the snow came down for an hour or two in light fluffy flakes and created a magical wonderland.
I was so excited I could have danced a jig and threw myself to the ground to make a snow angel. I refrained and just quietly enjoyed it.

| I did make the first tracks! |
I grew up in the Midwest and some of my happiest days were spent frolicking in the snow or just sitting inside watching the flakes flutter to the ground creating a magical wonderland.
I miss that as we do not get much snow in my part of the country.
Today I feel rejuvenated; the fresh fallen snow and the beauty left in its wake has me grinning from ear to ear.
I realize that for many Summer is their favored time of the year but for me it is the opposite.
I enjoy winter, whether I am inside nesting or outside enjoying the chill in the air, the breeze in my hair and the snow landing softly on my cheeks. It brings a smile to my face and a spring to my step.
It truly is the little things in life that bring the most pleasure. If you are a fellow snow lover I hope that you were lucky enough to get some too, if not I am sure that before winter is over you will have your fill.
I hope you enjoy your day, stay warm and safe.

Yes, indeed! I'm a fan of snow and winter 🙂 As soon as I woke up, put on my coat and ran outside to inspect. So pretty!! I think we might be getting more snow, Elizabeth.

I am so very envious! I am very fond of winter, and your pictures are absolutely lovely bringing such joy. Enjoy your snow dear.
So pretty! What is it about a snow fall that makes us feel like kids .. or frolicking in the snow?! We get a little snow living at the higher elevations/foot hills in WA state. The forest looks so pretty when covered in white and the roads often close because they aren't easily accessible by snow plows.
Enjoy every minute!
