2010 First Snow

And so it begins....


the lake did not thaw out all week, remaining a frozen tundra of temptation to southern children who were certain they could walk on it.



The Snowflakes though are another matter. They fell onto the frozen mass forming a snowy scene of delight.

Casey is happy. The snowflakes dance in her hair and tickle her nose.

hmmmm...garden statues ponder the fate of our snow. will there be school tomorrow, oh garden fairy?

Alex is home now, and she is very very VERY sure that we could walk on the ice...

but it looks like it is already melting to me, so I say no no No!
**************************************
SNOW DAY! Or perhaps we should say icy road day...They've cancelled school, but there's really not enough snow to have much fun. The girls could barely mash together a snow ball.
Jazzy makes a snow ball and searches for an unsuspecting target.
***********************
Nah, the snow ball belongs to one of the girls and Jazzy is looking for the Escape Hatch.
She is not a snow cat .
