It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...everywhere you turn!

Well folks, we finally got our first snowfall this season! I had been waiting anxiously for quite some time, so I was maybe the only person who was actually excited about it. Seriously, I ran to the window at work with excitement and was met with grouchy, bah humbug comments from co-workers. Apparently people do not appreciate the beauty of snow!

What's not to love!? Well, I learned driving home Tuesday night, that driving is what's not to love. The roads were HORRIBLE in my opinion. Since I am a Florida girl and have very little driving in snow experience I thought that it might just be me, but no. Many people reported horrible roads and had serious problems commuting home. I can't even remember how many cars I passed that had slid off into ditches or fields.

It was scary!

It ended up taking me almost an hour in a half to make it home (about 25 miles), and it was dark. I was so thankful to finally be home, safe and warm. I will tell you that I prayed a lot on the drive home Tuesday night!

We snapped some pictures on Tuesday night while it was still snowing and I took some Wednesday night too. Louie is not a fan of the snow yet, but I hope he comes to like it. If he doesn't-it could be a very long winter for him!

Here are some pictures:

The flakes were big, heavy and wet. They stuck to things like electric poles, wires, trees, fences...you name it. It was beautiful!

Louie in his winter coat...poor pup was not happy!

Isn't he cute!?

These were taken on Wednesday:

Louie was so excited to see me when I came home. He was running and jumping and it was so cute. I tried to capture some pictures of him, but it was difficult! I love the above picture though...

He had to take a break and do some licking, this just cracks me up!

And of course I had to take some pictures of the glowing Christmas tree :) Have I mentioned that I love this time of year?! I do!

See that ruffle tree skirt? I made it and I love it with our tree!

LOVE the reflection in the window on this one!

Has anyone else been hit with snow this week? I am sure ours will melt because it doesn't look like we will get anymore for about a week. I do hope that we have a white Christmas for my family from Florida. I have been praying for that everyday! Have a great Thursday everyone!
