Snow!

As day dawned, we were surprised to find it was snowing!



"Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!"



Aravis tried, unsuccessfully, to look at snow through the magnascope. We did not have any black cloth in the freezer in case it snowed, and her snow crystals melted within seconds of being installed under the magnascope. If you look closely, you can see that the snow crystals in her *hair* haven't melted, though!



Yesterday's rose is today's rosecicle.



Cornflower brought in her pea seedlings.



The temp is currently around 33 degrees, so the best accumulation is on the tops of cars and houses. The kids took advantage of that for a brief snowball fight.







I am inside blogging rather than outside playing because it is *cold* this morning! And I am a wimp. ;o) The girls came inside with very wet mittens and drank tea for a few minutes, but are now back out, appreciating the snow as hard as they can until it disappears. :D
