aha!...snow!

i was on the phone with my parents & i were finalizing details about their upcoming christmas visit & my dad mentioned that they were forecasting a winter storm for our area. "we never get snow!" i said.

(literally...we have lived in the wnc mountains since february 2000, and we have only been able to build a snow man one year...when our 9 year old was 3)!

hmmm, how does the saying go?? 'open mouth, insert foot"??

we have a whopping 14" & it is still coming down...

it is amazingly beautiful, isn't it?? so long as our power stays on (we have electric heat!)




this is a stained glass fairy that my mom made us as a wedding gift, beautiful against the snowy backdrop...
