Winter Wonderland...

The morning seemed like any other as I hit the snooze button several times as I did everyday....thoughts of calling in swirling in my head.  Little did I know that waiting outside was a sight I had witnessed only a few times in my life.  Everyday my routine was the same.  Not wanting to wake the sleeping grizzly bear (aka Chad) I took my things to the guest room to get ready for my day.  Today, I was stopped dead in my tracks as I opened our bedroom door to be greeted by a winter wonderland outside the window.  It was ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!  As I stood there in amazement, I waited only a few minutes before I turned around and woke Chad to share in my delight.  :)

When we heard that it might snow earlier this week, a slight tinge of excitement arose in our hearts although realistically we knew the possibility was small.  Boy were we WRONG!! 

It STILL hasn't stopped snowing!
