Guess what we found?



Yesterday, while frantically searching for my high school diploma (needed for my new job of substitute teaching) in amongst the many boxes we have yet to unpack, that fill our basement to an undesirable level, we discovered a gift we received from Tag many years ago (Please pardon the run on sentence...). We were so tickled to find it and the pictures show you exactly where in our kitchen its final resting place now is. Needless to say, we had a great cup of coffee this morning made with our newfound prize.

A bit frigid I'd say



Pretty snowfall. Today was a crisp but cold day and the mountains look quite striking. We got about 4 inches of snow up here on the mountain and really frigid temperatures as you can see on our atomic clock. The dim picture is from today. Sorry it is so hard to read. 3 degrees this morning as I took this picture. It was 0 degrees when I first got up. Yesterday it had gotten down to 5 degrees and was 13 degrees when I first got up. Our dogies go out the door first thing in the morning and scurry right back to the warmth of the house. Brrrrrrr. At least the wind was calm today and no chill factor made things even worse.

Snow and Bitter Cold



This is our biggest snowfall for the year to date. It is 5 degrees right now and our water froze last night so we are having to deal with that.













Cadie just loves romping in the snow. She came back into the house with snowballs frozen to her nose hair. She was hysterical trying to bite them off.

True sisters


This was so cute. Cadie crawled in her cage voluntarily while Wayne and I were looking at something on my computer. Windee politely crawled in there with her and sat down. They get along well most of the time.
