He spreads the snow like wool and scatters the frost like ashes. Psalm 147:16

You know you've had mild winters when one real snow comes and everyone forgets how to drive.

I was supposed to work at the mall last night and just a few minutes before I was to walk out the door I got a phone call "dont come in, there's no one in the mall, I think they are going to close..."
I just had to laugh. I certainly didn't mind, I just jumped in my car and went to the video store - who was also getting ready to close early- .50 movies and a lovely blanket of snow on the ground, sounded good to me! driving there I wondered how these folks would manage out in Colorado where they were pummeled with snow storms every weekend for eight straight weeks. But, oh how it makes for good skiing!






My heart goes out to those where the temperatures have been freezing for so long they are without water, and the people up north where it was -46 yesterday.
You wont hear me complaining about one simple snow storm!!!

Sarah, you have a blog! Fun to find you on here. I know, it's been funny to watch people freak out about 4-5" of snow :) And did they really close the mall?? When I was little and we had snow days, we always went to the mall to celebrate. Awesome clips of Tony Dungee, too!

Wow! Great snow pics! We've been hating life for the last few weeks. It's way too cold for snow here. It takes me 10 minutes to put on the boots, coats, mittens, hats, and scarfs on the kids to go out the door. Usually by the time I'm done with one the other is half undressed! It's just not worth going out sometimes.

Hi Sarah,
Yes, I did get your email. I'm sorry for not keeping in touch with you. Plans have slowed down since school started again. But I am still planning on having you and Abram do my pictures. Does Abram have any kind of portfolio? I'll let you know if anything else happens and give you a list of what we would like for pictures! thank you!
