The veiw from here

We haven't had as much snow this year compared with the past two winters we have lived here. It hasn't even been that cold, mostly in the 20's. But I'd thought I'd share what it is like on a normal day here....especially for a couple of Grandparents who will be visiting next month to play with some babies. Thatcher and I are going to Vegas for a few days in February.


Driving through the neighborhood......

taking Alyssa to school...




and this was just neat. At night it looks like someone sprinkled glitter everywhere. But sometimes if you look real close you can see that the "glitter" is individual snowflakes. They really are incredible and super hard to photograph too.

And just for fun. Alyssa got new "snow clothes" and it is kind of hard to see in this picture but, she also had a makeover session one night in my bathroom when she was suppose to be sleeping! Also a reminder to go vote for Alyssa. Our photographer choose her photo as one of her favorites. The picture with the most votes will be their home page picture for 2011. Just scroll down to comments and leave your name, which number you are voting for(#1), and why. Voting is open until January 31st.
