So I was looking at Really Kool Posts, which has a new post everyone should look at!! & I was thinking I should do a post with some pictures. So...

Snow last year--strangely we've hardly had any this year! (photo credit: Katy Allie.)

Me standing with one of the president statues (this is Truman) in Rapid City, SD. This was in, I guess maybe '06. Wow, I look little!! (Photo credit: John Allie.)

Most recent photo: our three cats all eating "yummy" canned cat food (yuck!!) They're enjoying it though, and the sure look cute lined up by size and age. From L to R: Oscar the youngest, "Puffy" (Pippin), Ginger. Aren't they awesome? :) (Photo credit: Allie family.)

Flowers!!! So pretty after looking at the gray trees and brown grass outside. I took this a few years ago of the azalea bushes in our front yard. :) (Photo credit: Katy Allie.)

first snow

sO since Katy always posts about their first snow fall of the year...I decided to post about our first snow of the year. Out here in the Midwest we've been waiting for snow for months and all we've seen so far is a couple flurries, which don't really count as the first snow fall since they don't stick. Leading up to today it's been FREEZING cold and the weather people on tv have been talking about how we might get a little...but then we don't. and then all of sudden on a day with only a 20 percent chance of snow...I get woken up by everyone trying to be the first to tell me that we have like half an inch of snow! And it's keep snowing all day! :) Which makes me happy! :)

So anyway here are a couple pix! :)

Snow?

Snow? In October? Well, last night we did get a small amount of snow! It melted very quickly but it was there all the same! I didn't get any pictures of it, but tomorrow night we may be getting another storm, so I might get pictures of that for you guys. I just hope our power won't get knocked out!
I for one wouldn't mind if the snow held off until at least late November!

First Snow!

So last night, it snowed a little!!! We ended up with just a little bit of slushy snow. Now, in the late afternoon, it is very patchy. We also had some freezing rain last night...and some kind of rain today, too. ANYWAY...back to the SNOW!!!! I was excited to see the little bit of snow...plus, it snowed a little bit for a little while this morning, too....not very visible flakes, but still cool. So yeah!! November 8th: first snow!!!!
