Let it Snow!

Finally a real Winter!  This is the best one in years...

We're loving the snow (and snow days-  yay for being married to a teacher! )  It feels like it did when we were kids...  The pine boughs are touching the ground (and our cars) the snow is so heavy:  (This pic was taken before it had finished but you get the idea)

Our backyard is a "fairy land" :

We had fun making "Frosty" but he didn't make it through the most recent snowstorm: 

Christian loves his daddy:

Justin's been hanging inside:

And we've all been spending lots of time in front of the wood-burning stove.  (So glad we kept it!!)...  Even little miss Ashby:

Wanna see something funny? (Before & After House Exterior)

Here's our house when we moved in this past Spring:

 

And here it is from the street now:  (Yesterday was a Snow Day!)

 

We had fun painting the door orange & left it that way thanks to many of you saying you liked it.  We also added a huge trellis on the front with jasmine vines and also few shrubs(all we could afford until next season).  Dave painted the cedar siding a dark warm gray:

... But didn't quite get to the sides or the back of the house before Winter hit:

Oops! 

Just keepin' it real. 

My neighbors must think there's something wrong with us.  ;)
