Real Snow

We were all wondering if in fact this state was going to get a White Christmas.  Yet, just like a movie, on Christmas morning, we has a delightful flurry of white snow blanketing our lawns and streets.  For the next few days, we got a little more that made for a really great powdery play place in our backyard.  Something that Cameron had never really experienced before.  Sure, we were here last year, but he was a year younger then too.  So it was fun getting to watch him re-discover it all over again.

We tried to build a snowman, but my one memory of building one with my father is very vague and I couldn't seem to manage to put one together.  Didn't matter much; Cameron enjoyed just running around and playing.  He got more and more comfortable with it as the hour passed and was soon sitting in it and throwing it into his face.  My favorite part of the softly fallen snow? The way it lays on the trees.  It only happens when there is no wind and it's just a light snow. So pretty.
