Our Winter Wonderland

Brrr...It's cold and snowy out there!

We only got about 5 inches here in town but the surrounding hilltops got anywhere from a foot to a foot and a half of snow and it is so pretty to look at.

Saturday morning we got up and began shoveling and plowing. It was a HEAVY wet snow with almost an inch of a wet slush/ice combo on the bottom. Once we got everything cleared off we headed inside where I have pretty much stayed since.

Did I mention that it's really cold out there?

I did venture out to the store and to get my hair permed but that was about it. My hopes of enjoying the weekend while sewing did not happen. I did change my blog around a bit. You'll notice that my header is HUGE. I have tried all weekend to make it smaller but have failed each time so I have given up. The way it is will have to do for now or until I find something else that I like better. My husband thinks I'm nuts for putting spring up so early but I told him I need some sunshine and brightness.

I may have no control of the weather outside but I do have control of my blog weather and it's gonna be sunny and warm for quite some time. :0)

Schools were cancelled today so I'm planning on using the day to work on cutting out my quilt pieces.

It's also my Dad's 57th birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!) today so I will be cooking a dinner for us all to have as we gather for a birthday party later this evening.

I better get off here. If I don't then my day will be gone with nothing accomplished.

Stay toasty & warm!
