Winter Arrives... at Last!

Yesterday afternoon as my family and I were finishing lunch, we were treated to something that has been quite rare this winter...

Snow!!! We had not been forecasted to get any, so naturally we all were VERY excited!  It snowed pretty steadily for about an hour, leaving us with a nice dusting on the ground. Apparently it was quite a strong front that come through as, for a brief few minutes at the beginning, we had a couple of claps of thunder shake the house! There was still a little bit on the ground this morning but most of it is gone now. Oh well, by the end of this week we're forecasted to be back up in the upper 50's.... but that's okay with me. We've now had winter, it's time for spring! ;)
