First it was an ice storm, and then yesterday it was snow.
The kids were home from school and a little bit too giddy for my liking. Hell, if you look closely in the pic below, you’ll see they are actually enjoying each other’s company:
And check out the funny girl chucking a snow ball at me (How perfect is that snowball by the way? Look at the top middle of the photo):
As much as I have grown to despise the cold, there is no denying the beauty of the winter garden. A time for quiet reflection, a look at the bones of the landscape, the enjoyment of plants dying with dignity and with purpose and a chance to regain our breath.
For shits and giggles, check out the “afters” and “befores” below. Beauty in all of the seasons:
Perhaps not as colourful as in summer, but just as beautiful!
For someone who has literally seen snow in person only a few times in my life, the way in which it changes the landscape it utterly remarkable.
I will take the snow over ice any day. I really like the change of seasons although some are short. I like the way the snow changes everything. I want a white Christmas, but the streets and roads to be clear. You know just have snow on the grass and trees. Have a wonderful day. Hugs and Prayers from a Missouri Friend.
love the pictures
