the snow that came

It is not every year that we get such a snow


So when we do, we stop everything and go outside and enjoy it as any sensible one would do.


Or I should say, as a Southerner would.

I love the winter season especially when snow is in the package!  Actually, one of the distinct things on my bucket list is to spend a winter in a place where snow and wintry weather is common place. This post should have been done last week if I was up to date, but the snow came, we played, then before we knew it, Charlotte and I were packing and heading out the door for a Dance Festival held at the School of the Arts for the weekend.

It was beautiful, wasn't it? But now I am ready for spring. I'm taking down my decorations in hopes. A blessed weekend to you!
