*el frio y la nieve

We haven't had the subzero temperatures yet like places in the West, but winter is definitely almost here!  So far the girls are totally embracing it. I don't mind so much now that we have a cozy home with a new boiler and a wood-burning stove as well!

This was the first inch we got earlier this week:

not much, but enough for snow angels:

this area on the playground was flooded a little and then froze - the first day was the best, so many kids out there after school - falling on their butts and laughing :)

We got a lot of snow last night and they went out for a while before bed.  I used to love going out at night while it was still snowing - the light in the sky is kind of pink and for some reason it doesn't feel that cold.

she's so cute all bundled up :)
