Winter Wonderland!

It all started the day after Christmas, and it hasn't slowed down! We've had one snow storm after another. Paired with frigid temperatures, this makes for deep snow frozen as hard as cement under layers of newer, fluffier snow. It looks like we might have finally gotten some snowman-snow, as it is snowing yet again, but this morning, Emily informed me "Mommy, I don't like snow."
These are a few snapshots of our last storm.

This was taken early in the morning, during the first "thundersnow" I'd ever seen. The sky light up is eerie flashes.













In other parts of the state, this isn't all too impressive. But for a small neighborhood so close to the beach, this an incredible amount of snow!







Emily trudged through the snow so lightly and gently she barely sank into it. Snow and cold temperatures weren't going to keep her from her swing!










This is Scooter, our neighbors' miniature horse. Poor little guy, he was waiting for carrots, but we forgot to bring them with us!
