IT'S WINTER! SNOW AND KIDS


November and snow have come to Salt Lake. After a picture perfect October with beautiful yellow leaves on my maple trees contrasting with my green lawn, and delightful temperatures, November hit with a bang. Trees and shrubs are bowing down to the ground under the weight of the 4 1/2 inches that we received here on Wednesday. I know it started snowing Tuesday at my Dad's house and in the mountains, so they've all received more.

Robert was going to take in the swings before it snowed but because the tree looked so lonely without them, he just couldn't bear to do it just yet. Today, even under the canopy of leaves left on the tree, they got a fair amount of snow and they look even lonelier!




But snow means nice cold temperatures and quieter neighbors and less yard work and HOLIDAYS!!! And holidays mean family.

Here are a couple of photos from our get together when Allison was in town.
