I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas...

i really do hope for a White Christmas! i love shades of white and i love snow and winter recreation! a walk through a snowy peaceful forest is what i adore.........

my parents are from North Dakota, most of my childhood was spent in a suburb of Chicago and i went to college for two years in Minnesota...so i have lived through some REAL winters!!

unfortunately, my beloved home of Tennessee only experiences occasional snow falls.

ice storms is more the norm here...

don't get me wrong, there is beauty in ice too, but it is dangerous and destructive.

and so i will just DREAM of a White Christmas..............

are you dreaming too?
