Happy Snow Day

Well hello there, unexpected snow day.  Currently I'm hold up on the couch with Em & my computer to keep me warm.  I'm too cold to get up to turn the heat up since it's a Monday & usually it's turned down a little when we're gone.  Today is a snow day.  Something I thought I'd never hear in Indiana.  But currently there's about a foot or so of snow out side & the temperature would freeze your fingertips.  Brrrrr.  So today is an unexpected day to continue the weekend & continue getting things done.  I've got my Four Simple Goals to get completed & a slew of other posts to schedule.  So here's to a snow day!  (if you want to see a video of Em in the snow, click here)

Hope you're safe & warm!  Happy snow day!

xoxo, Moe

A Peek into Our Winter Wonderland // Our First Snow

Yesterday it started flurrying a little bit & I got excited.  You see, up here in Indiana....snow is nothing exciting.  Apparently it happens a lot.  Down in Virginia where I was, snow is a big deal.  So I got all excited, stood outside for a bit & took some pictures.  This morning I opened the door for the workers to come in & saw a winter wonderland outside! So I took more pictures!!  Here's how our house looks now, after our first snow.

Here you can see that we are working on our house, look at that cone & the sticker on the windows.  That's also the contractors' truck out there!

We have so many doors on our house.  Three to be exact!  The official front door is the one that faces the street but we've had someone in the past be confused as to which one is the real front door.   I hate that the cone & the little marking flags are in this picture because of how perfect the snow is.  But isn't our little yellow house just adorable!  I couldn't love it more.

There are no houses across the street but a little bit of marshy-ness & then a hill.  So we have a really good view of the houses & trees down the hill.  It's actually a great view! I tried to get a good close up of the snow cover on the houses down there.  I am so glad I caught snowflakes in some of these images!  So pretty.

We have a big back yard with a few different tiers.  Here it is covered in snow! I think in the spring we're going to have a nice little garden in that little boxed off part...at least that's what Zach is thinking. I think it would be nice to grow something...even though I'm sure I don't have a green thumb.

Well that's a little tour of our winter wonderland that I woke up to today.  It sort of surprised me that there was still snow on the ground this morning!

That is a macramé xmas tree in the back ground.  My grandad made that.

Cool craftyness runs in the family

look at the stockings on the fire place.  Those are just for show, 

Santa brings our stockings up to the door in the living room where the Christmas tree is.

Don't you also love the wood paneling?

I was sitting at my grandad's computer to take the pictures of everyone opening present.

Also, the day after Christmas was a SNOW DAY!!!!

That is around a foot of snow there! I couldn't get to work, nor could my sister!

Can you believe it.  I am hoping I can get out tomorrow to go to work.  They closed loads of roads around us so I couldn't get from city to city to work.  

There is a video of the snow over at Cross My Hooks too!

Hope everyone's Xmas was delightful.  I am still stuffed!
