Boy did we get snow! Still coming down today, with lots of nice wind to blow it around. No last minute shopping for me. All I really need is all the last minute food things for Christmas Eve that you can't get ahead of time. I think I will have Richard take me Tuesday night when he gets home from work. I took a few pictures. Gotta say as much trouble as all the snow creates it sure is pretty.

Yes, know what you mean, snow, snow, snow, everywhere. Merry Christmas from the snowy Washington Palouse!

I know it's a lot for you guys up north, but we're a bit jealous down here in Kentucky...we've had VERY cold weather (3 today), but they say a "wet" Christmas and 43 degrees...blech. To my knowledge, the song doesn't say that ANYONE is dreaming of a "wet" Christmas!!!

We got walloped with snow here as well, but my snow plow guy has come and gone so at least we can bust out of the house if need be. I love tha snow, and I'm supposed to get my can back tomorrow, then I can have the snow tires put back on it, if I can find them in the barn....

Your little birdhouse looks so sweet with that heavy icing of snow....It does look beautiful today, the sun is out too so it is really sparkling, so much nicer than the large expanse of brown. I love it when the big evergreens droop into the middle of my road and make the tunnel of trees.

I trust you will have a lovely holiday....Karin

I don't know which is worse--all this snow or the cold temperatures. It is 9°F here now and supposed to get up to a whopping 22. We haven't seen above freezing temps for going on three weeks now. I'm ready for Spring and planting, etc.

We have alot of snow here, too. It is pretty until the plow comes by and you have to shovel all of it.

I think I saw on the weather last night, Nancy-Jo, that it's going to be up around 40 on Christmas Eve and Day. I hope we don't lose it all!

My Stars. Look at all that Snow
We use to have lots of snow ; but none since Daddy died about 3 years ago.
Snowed 8 inches then
We use to have huge snows.
It is only 28 here at 5;11 pm
Wind blowing here too.
It was 15 here last night
Suppose to be up to 65 this weekend ; go figure. Hugs Pinkroses

Nancy Jo, we all remember your secret garden and your porch flower pots, and it is incredible to see the new beauty created in the same spots now. How lovely! Perfect for Christmas!

Wow, Nancy Jo...you got LOTS of snow! How beautiful! We got ice here last week and it's not looking good for the kids coming from Iowa to here for Christmas...snow storms expected up there starting Tuesday and they were leaving early the next morning. Oh well....as long as they are safe and well. I have enough food now until SPring! Your tree is so pretty....I have white lights but need to get some colored because I like colored lights the best! I miss the snow but not the cold....it has been unseasonably cold here! It is only 21 right now and windy. We're supposed to get rain for Christmas. I hope you and your family have a wonderful, cozy Christmas!

Miss Wilma, the only snow machine I have is Richard with a shovel. But it works pretty good.

Great pictures, Nancy. We got some snow this weekend, too. But only about a foot. Marybeth, love your "photo op"!
