FIRST BEAUTIFUL SNOW

 

This is what we awoke to this morning. Our first big snow in our new home and it did not dissapoint. There were over 50 ducks at the edge of the lake, dabbling for the cracked corn that Phil threw out last night.

Levi, got his first look at snow and dashed out the door. He was surprised at how it felt but he loved it. Here he is just before he tumbled off the patio.  

He hopped like a rabbit accross the patio but couldn't stop, taking a tumble down the hill.  

That didn't stop him. He romped and played until I made the little snow ball come in. If you look closely, you can see his tracks in the snow where he took the tumble. I didn't have my telephoto lens on and didn't want to go out so it looks far away.

Phil got up this morning at 4 a.m. and turned the driveay heaters on so by 8:30 a.m. the driveway looked like this. Nearly 5 inches of snow had melted under where the coils were.  

As long as you have a clear dry path for the tires to move on, he didn't have any trouble. Hope all is well with all our blog friends.

TIME TO SPARE

It has been so freezing cold for the past weeks that I haven't ventured out much. We had a skiff of snow on December 4th but our driveway worked great. I was able to get my front wheel Camry up the hill without a skid. So what to do, what to do..
I was playing with my new laptop and decided to make a collage. I Think I did pretty good. Her is one about Titus  

and another of Baby Elsa  

and lastly Liza Jayne  

Not exactly professional but I learned about the face identity part of Picasa and my computer.

Speaking of Liza Jayne, we dropped in on her the other day and caught her in her birthday suit.
SO SWEET, her Daddy was giving her a bath in the kitchen sink.
Of course, when she saw us, she want to get out and come to us. Oh, the joys of being Grandparents!!!
