The Snow!

The view from Jacqueline's window. 

The view from my window.

The snow, in bitter cold,

 Fell all the night;

And we awoke to see

The garden white.

And still the silvery flakes

 Go whirling by,

White feathers fluttering

From a grey sky.

Beyond the gate, soft feet

In silence go,

Beyond the frosted pane

White shines the snow.

Well, it's more ice then snow,but it is beautiful.  Momma woke us up this morning with the news that it had snowed.  We still have our electricity which we were afraid we might lose, so that is something to thankful for.

 Dad isn't going to work, so we can have a nice quiet day filled with book reading, warm food, and maybe Dad will build us a fire! Jacqueline wishes me to add that she is half way to the snow already and begs me to go with her. I haven't decided if I will nor not. 

Update: We went sledding down our hill on a piece of leftover cardboard.  :0) And Mom is making pumpkin muffins with chocolate chips for breakfast!
