First Snow Fall


Friday night as we prepared to have friends for dinner..........the snow began to fall...........
and it fell, and it fell, and it fellMesmerized by the white flakes falling, Avery waited patiently by the front door for the Seversons to arrive. They ran in laughing, greeting us with "Happy Holidays" and "Merry Christmas!"
You would think it was Dec. , but it was only October 10th! That is an early snow fall for us!The kids were dying to go outside and play in the white blanket of fresh snow.Instead they had to stay in and play "school" with Payton.Oh, you know she was in heaven bossing these little cuties around all night!

The adults were in heaven too, because when "school" was in session, we enjoyed adult conversation while eating our delicious meal!
It is Sunday night, the snow is long gone, but it was a fun sight. I always love the first snow fall of the year. It is a reminder of so many exciting activities to look forward to.......snowboarding, tubing, sledding, snowmen, snow angels, snow caves, and snowball fights..... to name a few!
