    Oh, how pretty :-D
    I remember waking up to that kind of snow a few times when I lived in Denver and Evergreen Colorado.

    Freeze your skin in 10 minutes? Then stay inside!!

    Remember many a snow like that in Wisconsin. That's why we moved to Arizona. I prefer sandstorms.

    Well the weather didn't do what was forecast. It's still sitting at -12 deg C and the sun is out and the wind is gone. The wind chill makes all the difference! It took us until noon to plow our selves out with the help of the neighboring farmers tractor. The tractor made short work of what would have taken us most to the day. Here is the snow pile once we were done. The shovel is just short 5 feet...

    Boomer loves the snow and had a great time running up and down the hills. She wore herself out and is now napping!

    While it is very pretty, and I would love to play in it long enough to make an awesome snowman, it can stay where it is. Thanks for the pics Netty, that is how I like to see snow.

    What glorious snow. I guess since we don't get much here I can continue to love it while you may be getting tired of it. :p

    I love it when the snow is new and so smooth and sparkly. Great photos - though it sure looks cold!

    My dogs also love to stick their faces in the snow. It must be fun! Hope it all melts soon. Think spring!

    Wow the snow is beautiful!! As much as I would love for it to snow here, I don't think I would like that much!!
    Boomer is soooo cute, especially with the snow on her face!!
