February Flakes







Let it snow.
Let it snow.
Let it SNOW!


Finally...

... February 7th
and we are getting
some accumulation
here in Illinois.

Cada on point,
with blurred snowflakes falling


We've had 
a few dustings,
but nothing 
to speak of 
until now.





I know many
of you in the Northeast
are gearing up for two
MAJOR
storms that will converge
 bringing hefty snow levels
in the double digits.
Get ready.







We're only looking
at maybe 8-10 inches.




I love it.
What's winter 
without 
 a lovely snowfall?








Soooo pretty,
don't you think?

  3. Feeling very nostalgic looking at those breathtaking pictures... they remind me so much of the deep, beautiful snows we would get during my childhood in the North Carolina mountains. Looking at this post is like looking at a beautiful holiday card.

  5. So pretty! I love when it sticks to the trees. Yes, here in NJ, we are bracing for the blizzard due to hit our area tomorrow into Saturday. I think we are supposed to get 10-14 inches where we live but Boston is supposed to get a couple feet! We sure have had some crazy weather this year!

  22. Beautiful! and I love the little video! My dogs go crazy in the snow. They seem to enjoy the smells which makes no sense because I would think everything would be covered.. ? Your photos are gorgeous! Enjoy the snow days ahead and stay warm.
