Thanksgiving snow

It snowed lots last night and this morning.  It's beautiful.  Really it is.  But, sigh.  It IS snow.  Sigh.

 I title this one    Lavender in Winter.   Sigh.

 There's nothing like new, fresh, deep snow and two little girls to get us up out of our chairs!!!

 They were forging a path the the back yard.....

 

 Where they took the cover off the sandbox to use the tools to build a fort.

 

Elizabeth decided to start eating.  There's nothing that tastes like fresh, new snow. 

 Yummy, delicious, sweet, cold, crunchy.

"Sit down," she said, "there's plenty here!"

 

And so we did.

After our snow lunch Grandpa and Adelaide took a walk to the end of the road to see the snow on the lake and check for westerly clouds.
