Snow Comes to the Midwest...Finally!

Other than a small sprinkle of snow in early December, we have had very warm springlike weather and frankly, gotten a bit spoiled by it.  Last week  I noticed that there were buds on my trees as if spring was in progress.  Today we woke up to a winter storm that is providing us with some beautiful snow and treacherous roads.  It was a sad sight to see the little frozen buds this morning and makes me wonder what our spring will be like when it actually does arrive.

 Poppy is thrilled with this development and has been busy rooting in the snow...not sure what she thinks she is going to find, but she is determined to find whatever may lurk under the abundant white stuff.


It is a definite drawback to have short little legs so I have been busy shoveling a path to the backyard.
