First Pennsylvania snow!

Ok...I know, all right, I know. I know that I haven't posted anything on this blog in over a month, but come on, we've been super busy! Finally got moved in to the new house in Pennsylvania (and not without a few hiccups here and there, but I won't bore you with those lovely details), got the kids settled into school, and even made a trip back to Atlanta for Thanksgiving (and no, I don't have any pictures of the kids' first day of school here in Pennsylvania or Thanksgiving because my camera was still in a box somewhere!).

Finally, this past weekend, we unpacked the last box....it only took us a month! The camera made it's first appearance in Pennsylvania just in time to capture an image of our newly erected Christmas tree....which Will seems to adore.




And thankfully, the camera reappeared just in time to capture our first real snowfall of the season! (I may sound excited about this now, but I can assure you that after a couple more weeks of this snow stuff and my excitement will subside substantially). Now, we've had snow falling every day for the past week, but today is the first day with any accumulation on the ground. It's been snowing for about 2 hours now, and I'd say we've got 2 inches on the ground with plenty more rapidly falling. It's like a blizzard out there!

Here are a couple of shots of Allie just after the snow started falling...


(throwing a snowball)...


And here's a shot from our kitchen window about an hour later...


I wish you could see it now! Everything's covered! Winter....here we come!
