Snow, Snow, Glorious Snow!!

Illuminating Snow

It finally happened, the one thing that I have been looking forward to the most since moving to Missouri…….SNOW!! It was a beautiful, snowy day yesterday. I think we must have got at least 2 inches. It fell in all sorts of types. First, drizzly. Then softly. After that, strongly with big, beautiful flakes.

I know, you must be thinking, what is the big deal lady, it’s just snow! Well, after spending the last 26 years in California, I can get pretty jazzed about the stuff.

Heck, I love the snow so much that I merrily and with great enthusiasm shoveled our entire 2-car driveway all by myself!

Another reason why I love the snow…..my car! My beloved Dodge Durango 4×4 R/T is soooo made for this kind of stuff. Yep, I went out driving right in the thick of it. Emma and I cruised the R/T to Target without a worry in the world. As I saw other drivers skidding about, losing it in turns, I just effortlessly made my way through town. By the way, what is with some of the drivers around here? I would assume that this snow stuff is a pretty regular deal and you should be pretty good at driving in it by now?? Whatever, just stay out of my way please.

My girls love the snow too….they had a blast sledding at a neighbor’s house after school. They were going at it well past sundown!

All right, enough with the snow. It came, I loved it, hope more comes again real soon!

Hmmm…maybe I will make ice cream out of the snow….yum!
