Snow Day!

We got snow Sunday night, enough to make the world a white wonderland in the eyes of a child on Monday morning. Our girl was determined to make a snowman and so we set out into the dripping world and built. Our girl didn’t really want to get her hands into at first, I’m not exactly sure what she was hoping for, perhaps some industrial hand wheels that she could stick in a small clump of snow and then roll it around without actually touching it. Silly southern sweetie.

As usual there isn’t really enough snow to keep ground debris from getting all over the snowman; but since the car was in the drive it was covered in pristine snow that we could use to surface coat our small creation. A few stones for eyes, a baby carrot for a nose, green pepper slice for a mouth, and a leaf for a feather in his snow hat and we had our selves one handsome little fellow.

There is still a little snow left on the ground but seeing as it’s 3:30am here and it hasn’t fallen below the freezing mark yet I suspect what little there is will be gone soon.

So this is what passes for clear skies in my neck of the woods. We were pleased as punch to get an entire two and a half hours at the zoo with no rain. We didn’t quite make it through the trip to the library afterwards; but you take what you can get. On the way home from the library…

It’s probably the feeblest excuse for a rainbow ever; but who am I to complain. When you haven’t seen the sun in over a week you just aren’t that picky. The sun is supposed to come out of hiding over the weekend and stay with us through the coming week! Hope everyone has a great weekend, we will be enjoying every drop of sunshine we get.

Stormy Sunset
 

Once again, me without my camera and the chance to catch the most amazing hot pink cloud ever. Then I turn around and see the sun the color of watermelon sinking in the sky. Oh well, at least I got a few pretty pics when I got home.
