Let it snow, let it snow, LET IT SNOW!

Well, I was just thinking the other day, that I was ready for the hot days of summer to come to a close and for the crispness of the fall air to start. I love the blue sky of autumn, the leaves changing colors and falling and getting ready for Halloween, Thanksgiving and then Christmas! But Mother Nature seems to have her own plans yet again this year! But this is Utah, and the weather can change dramatically this time of year!
Last night Kris and I had taken Nate up to his friends house, and then Caitlyn wanted to look at some supplies for her Birthday Party coming up (yeah, her birthday is in September,but she always has an october party...) So we were driving up the hill going home and it was starting to snow. I made Caitlyn take some pictures of the yard with the dusting of white.
This is the bridge in the backyard around 7pm

And a dusting of snow on the rose bushes (that need to be pruned....argg)

AND THIS.... is what we woke up to this morning. It is truely magnificent and beautiful!
WOW




So as you can see, we are enjoying the early visit of snow. It may be gone in a day or two, but I love the first snow of the season. It is cleansing and pure and blankets us with a world of frosty white!

I drove through that snow on my way home from southern Colorado. Sure wish I knew how to find you and we'd have played in the snow.
Love ya! Would love to hear from you and see all the pics of the new house.
