First Snowfall....

...of significance of the season.  I had to work last night, but I would take frequent breaks to watch the lovely puffy flakes falling in the glow of the streetlight across the way.  As long as I don't have to drive in it, I love the snow.  I love all the seasons.  I'm a Midwestern gal, for sure.  I can't imagine not having distinct four seasons.  I've been in warmer climes over the winter, and it just seems weird to me that in January, it's not cold.  Ah, winter...snow, sleet, ice, clouds, freezing temperatures, snowmen, the smell of fires burning in fire places, Christmas lights, mulled wine, cozy comforters, heating blankets....I love it all!  (well, maybe not the ice so much....)

Here's what Rusty's doing today -- curled up in "his" heating blanket.  He likes it when it's turned up to 3 :-)
