Here in my part of Maryland, the past few Christmases have been very green, no hint of snow was in sight. But this year was different…
Monday, as we left the Christmas Eve service (at out Lutheran church) we were greeted with snowflakes! Adults and children alike, made delighted noises at seeing the snow. I’m sure some might not have been thrilled, but they were drowned out by the excitement of everyone else. Once we arrived home I took pictures, and my daughter and I played outside.
The above picture was taken of our garden, it’s about an acre. We also have a little over three acres of woods.
My daughter and I enjoyed the tiny amount of snow (while it lasted) later that evening the rain came and washed it all away. Which is ok… we still have some great memories, and I took plenty of photos.
Perfect for Christmas eve… We had a good snowstorm last Thurs and it has pretty much stuck. Merry Christmas!

@Beth Ellen Nagle, Saturday, we’re supposed to receive more snow. We had snow today, but the rain came and washed it all away. I had to drive in the slippery mess. I’m not concerned about my driving since I have enough sense to drive slowly, it’s the other yahoos that don’t have sense that worries me. Thankfully I made it to and from my destination in one piece. 😉

@Jennifer, I forgot you aren’t overly thrilled about snow, I keep telling my daughter that eventually I’ll move to Alaska or some cold European country. I loved Stockholm and Iceland…

I have roots in Norway! I want to visit there and from what I have heard they do get snow but their winters aren’t as bitter cold unless you live right near the coast!

@curls and q, I like them both, but snow is my favorite. We’re supposed to be getting snow tomorrow. I hope it stays around for a little while.

[…] The next morning, my daughter promptly wore this to school and proudly showed it to her friends. I purposely made it long, so she can fold it in half if she likes when the weather isn’t windy. Also if she leaves it up (as shown in the picture) it will protect her if she’s playing in the snow. Wishful thinking (I know) since this winter we’ve only received a dusting of snow. […]
