WINTER!!



I wasn't going to bother posting a picture of the house all decorated for the holidays, because we don't have money to do much - just those lights around the entry, and candle lights in the windows. But darn it, I'm so excited that we have SNOW that I just can't help myself. Yay for a white Christmas!

They're predicting snow for here (the Carolinas) on Sunday. That's the day we light the candles along the roadways of our neighborhood. The neighborhood assocation always "rents" a horse-drawn carriage to carry the kids (and adults) up and down the hills through the subdivision. Now, wouldn't that be PERFECT if we had snow on that night?

Being from south Louisiana, I've never experienced a white Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great picture! I just love your new house! Don't worry, as time goes by, you'll accumulate more decorations! Most of mine have been bought AFTER christmas, when they are cheap! Although we have been in our 5 years and we haven't decorated the outside yet!

Oh, that looks like a postcard! I LOVE snow... probably because it never happens here!

**BIG SIGH**

How beautiful! I miss being there! I also miss the snow. We've been in the 40's all week and I don't think it's gonna leave us any time soon!

PS - Have I ever told you what a great photgrapher you'd make?

I don't know... I'm sure the cold and snow will hit you soon, and then if you're anything like us, you'll spend the rest of the winter wishing it was warmer and less snowy.

I miss having you here!

Know what's funny? I had some prints made from some photos I've taken since I moved here... random things, like Stephen King's house and this really quaint church in Bar Harbor... and I was just looking at them and thinking, "Rachel's right! I would make a good photographer!" Hehe. We'll see if I ever do anything about that...

I think I'd probably enjoy the snow a lot less if I had to get out at 7am and clean off a car. But I don't, so I'm free to enjoy - at least for now!

No snow! I'd go crazy! Then again, if it's what I was used to, I don't suppose I'd know the difference, huh? Hehe.

Snow is nice the day it happens. By the next day, it's all brown and muddy-looking from the salt and sand they put on the roads, and then it's not so nice anymore... so I guess you're not missing a whole lot.

I didn't realize it till you mentioned that, but this is actually the first time I've ever decorated a house outside - and this is my third time being a homeowner. Guess I've slacked a little!

And yeah, I'm sure I'll accumulate plenty in no time flat... after-Christmas sales rock!
