~Spring Snow

What a great Spring snow, it snowed all day.  Ward and I went for a drive and I got some really great pictures.  It was a really nice family day.  Snow the end of the April isn't always fun but it makes us slow down and enjoy each other as we enjoy the day.  I'm grateful for this great snow fall which will help with how dry our winter was, I'm grateful it happened today, Saturday, so we could all be home together.  

Enough!

The first time I ever saw this I thought it was the craziest thing!

What you don't see is the dump truck at the end of the

street this front end loader puts the snow into.  The

side of the streets are so full of snow it is hard to drive past another

car.  These front end loaders go through neighborhoods 

removing the large piles of snow, usually just in time for 

the next major snow fall.  

More Snow!

Yep, more snow!  

Just when we thought we had enough, 

it snowed again!  

I can't believe how much snow has fallen in

a very short amount of time. 

New Snow

What a beautiful, peaceful, snow covered  morning.  I love

the fresh fallen snow and how it blankets everything it lands on.

I had to go out and take pictures of everything.  Once the sun came

out I knew it wouldn't last.  I love how it hung it nice little piles on the

garden fence.  It was such a quiet morning, no birds singing, no dogs

barking, no one out walking, no kids playing,just pure silence.  I knew it

wouldn't last long once the neighborhood woke up and all the kids

came out to play.

So much snow.  I think even Ella has had enough and

found a cozy place to sleep until it melts away.

 The world was so beautiful blanketed in new snow this morning.

It has been awhile since we had a good snow storm, which came today!  It 

started snowing this morning before the sun came up and kept on snowing throughout the

day, even when the sun had gone down. The one bad thing with the snow is the shoveling, I love having 

a three car garage until the snow comes.  It was so pretty to watch the snow fall throughout 

the day and into the even.  I am just glad we are all home safe, sound and warm.

Our first major snow fall.

The girls love it.

It was so pretty to watch as the snow fell, it makes the world seem so peaceful and everything so pretty. Ward went out to shovel the driveway with Jolene right on his heels. She loves to be outside no matter the weather. She bundled up and headed out to help. She completely enjoyed herself as she cleaned off the car and then made a cute little snowman in the front yard. She came in and while she was taking off the snow clothes she requested hot chocolate to warm her up.

I love the fresh snow.

I love the way it covers

everything is falls on like a blanket,

When we got up in the morning the yard looked so

beautiful we took out the new tripod and took lots

of pictures!! The snow made so many great designs where

it landed. The snow was so fluffy you could see the

individual flakes at times. Every time it snows it makes the

day so magical, it was so peaceful and quiet when we were

outside, we felt like we needed to whisper.
