Everything White.

Tonight while I am sleeping on my white, $170 pillowcases - my neighborhood will be sleeping under a blanket of white snow. Today was one of the most beautiful snows I have ever seen, it was like someone was sprinkling fake potatoes from the sky - big huge flakes!
angels made snow angelsmy faithful and friendly mailman made it to my mailbox.
why didn't I buy him a gift at the postal museum?

i am attempting to make my 15 year old Vasque boots in style as I don't want to have to buy the trendy $200 boots that everyone on my neighborhood are wearing. I actually think they are kind of cool and keep my feet ever so warm.
Annie Kate is hiding from Sally Jane as she stole her hat for the day.
SJ opted to stay inside for the day and watched us through the glass door. She went for the shirtless/diaper and jeans look
seeing this site reminded me i need to take a good summer photo of this beautiful archway.
as beautiful as it is when it is all in bloom, it was beautiful today!
my running path got a little break today. here is a photo when the snow is not covering it.

LOVE the type of snow you described-- especially when i can enjoy playing in it or watch it from inside the cozy house in my pjs.

beautiful...and I imagine it quiet. We only dream of snow like that here. When we get snow, it is cruncy. Never dreamy quiet.

I love snowy photos like these, they're beautiful. I always wish for big snowfalls like this one because I love how pretty it is and how homey it makes everything.

what a charming neighborhood. The snow looks beautiful. There is nothing as peaceful as newly fallen snow- the earth seems so still and quiet.

We had this same snow on Monday and it was wonderful! The kids had so much fun. I have those same Vasque boots...how funny! They are great for hiking and winter playing.

It all looks so beautiful and peaceful. Hard to wrap my brain around when I am preparing to go running at the beach in 70+weather.

I love the sort of 'muffled sound' you get when everything's blanketed in it like that.

That picture of SJ is absolutely lovely.
