Snow

We were blessed with more snow today. I'm loving this turn in the weather!

This photo is of a female Red Cardinal. The male is the bright red one. I can't take credit for the photos though...I found them on Google images ;)

First snow dusting

Michael and I were out for our weekly "date night" tonight and it started snowing! Well, it was more like heavy flurries but it was exciting!
We went to Goodwill and found some good buys for only $3 and stepped out into the blowing snow. Exhilarating! We went to a cozy Mexican restaurant following and I ordered a bowl of their soup. That was perfect on a cold night.

I treasure our weekly night outs and I'm glad that we've kept this tradition in our (almost) 20 years of marriage.

Snow Flurries

Brrrr!! It's already getting cold here and tonight and tomorrow there is a forecast of snow flurries. No one around here can remember any snow in October. This is kind of exciting but maybe a foretaste of a long, cold winter?

The kids have been wanting more snow. We've not had much snow in our first 2 winters here. Over the weekend, we visited an apple farm and got a bushel of delicious apples. It was in the 70's on Sunday!

P.S.

These aren't my photos and I can't figure out how to shrink them.
