| it snowed today!! yippie skippie! as we watched the rain turn into big fat snowflakes... my excitement began to build... and when the snow began to stick to the ground, well, i knew we were goin on a little field trip! |
 |
| mr. dan and i threw on some clothes, skipped brushing our teeth...ew... and headed for our favorite country road for a few photos (make that a few hundred) |
 |
| i have been anxiously awaiting this first snowfall all winter. |
 |
| i was as giddy as a young school girl. (try that sentence with a german accent...it is much funnier) |
 |
| i love snow! |
 |
| the snow was soooo wet i had to carry an umbrella to keep my camera from getting wet. i finally understand why someone invented those stupid looking hats with the umbrella attached...it would have come in handy. |
 |
| as we returned back to the old homestead... this is my house with snow on the roof.... it was still coming down, in big wet flakes... |
 |
| some of them even look like little white hearts! do you see the hearts? |
 |
 |
| snow covered angels and floating white hearts falling from the sky... a little piece of heaven on earth! a couple of hours later the snow was completely gone and then mr. sunshine even came out. i am so glad we rushed out to take pictures when we did! p.s. i know how to add a snow effect in photoshop but did not use it on any of these photos...nature took care of that for me. have a good week! erin this is my first attempt at the new google way of blogging...ha...so new (to me, anyway) that i can not even recall the name for it! anyhoo, i hope i did it right...learning something new is good for us, right? i have also installed the new linky followers button on my sidebar...i have been reading all sorts of rumors ("rumor has it", i love that song by adele) about google discontinuing the google friend connect button as of march 1st....i hope this does not happen as i love my followers and i don't want to loose a single one of you!! you can sign up to follow me in the new linky follower gadget if you care too....i am a little confused by the whole darn thing, but feel sure it will work itself out....fingers crossed here. |

I was wondering if or how much snow that area got. Nice photos - thanks for sharing.
The tiny blue print is hard to read. I think if your blog is thru blogger.com, the GFC will still work. If I understand it correctly, those that use wordpress, typepad, etc. will not have it any more.
I will always be here to follow you come rain, sun and even snow. <3

Dearest, YOUR HOME IS FABULOUS! THE SNOW, magnificent! WE HERE HAVE HAD NONE! Oh, maybe a dusting, but like in your case, it melts!!! What is up with this winter?
OOOOOOO I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE NEW GOOGLE TYPE OF BLOGGING! Just when I am getting a large number of followers, will they all now disappear???? I have no idea what to do!
OH WELL.....Anita
Such beautiful photos Erin. I love when the snow flakes are big like that and cover everything in such a way that enhances their beauty.
Thank you for sharing.
xoxoxo
Lovely pictures!!! Snow falling in heartshaped flakes, so beautiful. I love snow too, but we had a first springlike day today and I loved it just as much.
Btw, you have a dreamhome, well, the home from my dreams anyway, outside and inside.
Bye,
Marian
Beautiful! Scrolling down your photos, just as I wondered "what about your camera with all that snow?" you posted that you used your umbrella. Clever girl! And love the thought of you wandering about, in the snow, with a big 'ol umbrella. My mind is picturing a big black umbrella...
Beautiful photos, Erin! We had a lovely snowfall like that on Saturday, but it started late, and was gone by the time we got home from church. Only got a few shots with my iPhone. Good for you for getting out there and "capturing" those flakes!!! Your house is charming!

Your snow is lovely and I follow you on Linky. I am simply awful with new technology but I try:-}
Snowfalls like the one you photographed always bring tears to my eyes. There's nothing that can compare to that white magic! I'm glad you got out in time to enjoy it before it was gone.
lol! You sounded sooooo stinkin' happy in your post, Erin! I'm thrilled that you finally got the snow that you've been pining for!! I would'ave gladly sent you some of ours....but it's been almost non-existent this winter! We're loving THAT! lol! Your photos were just beautiful. It IS pretty when the flakes are big and wet and floaty! Your house is gorgeous, too, girl! :)
xoxo laurie
So many beautiful images, Erin! Glad you had fun in it. We have snow for 8 months here... but I never tire of how very beautiful it is! :)
Hugs,

Hi Erin
This is my second attempt to leave you a note.. Hope it goes through.
This post just makes my heart stand still. Absolutely beautiful!
Everything about you and around you says calm, soft and so beautiful.. I just adore your paintings, your choice of subtle colors. I always feel a sense of peace when viewing.
I wanted to thank you for your most welcome visit and such encouraging words about Jemima... I am truly touched. Thank you so much.
Enjoy your week
