One snowy night......


So, a couple of days ago, it snowed. And not only did it snow, it stuck to the ground! That night Greg, Justin and I went on a walk. We went up some trails into the neighborhoods behind our apartments. The snow on the grounds was powder dry and it crunched under our feet as we walked. The boys were gracious enough to let me stop to get a few snowy night pictures. It really was beautiful, all of these gorgeous houses all covered in snow. A long walk like that makes you think that maybe life isn't so bad, and it makes you remember what life truly has to offer. It also is a lot of fun. The hills were so icy that cars couldn't get to their houses. They would get halfway up the hill and then slowly slid right back down. Of course, we had to experience to this sliding sensation for ourselves. So Greg found a piece of plastic and sat on it, and slid down the hill. They even got me to try it once..ok twice! We must have looked hilarious as 3 adults sliding down the streets on our bums at 9 o'clock at night. But it is these things we do that make life count. Finding joy in the everyday will always keep the worries at bay.

The images I took were in your basic neighborhood. I just love the way snow makes everything look. The night was cloudy with some clear skies. It was cold and crisp, and quiet. Here is one shot I got of the moon.


And last but not least, here is a look off our back deck. I know, you've been dying to see where we live, so here is a small preview.
