Images From A Snowstorm

A blizzard + cooped up kids (and Momma) = a necessary outing with a camera. Within minutes, my daughter had climbed up onto a huge drift in front of our house and found herself sinking into deep snow. H-e-l-p, Momma!!! With my camera in one hand, I jumped into the drift and tugged on her leg until I got her free. She's my adventurous one, that girl. Younger brother is more cautious but a willing participant in most of her schemes.

We embarked upon a tour of our neighborhood, walking in the middle of the road until a truck came along, forcing us to dive into the snowbanks on the side of the road. Here are images from around our 'hood:

I was delighted when I spotted Mr. Owl standing watch over his little house. My slight bird obsession is alive and well!

God's creation is glorious! All of these branches looked to me like hands outstretched towards heaven......or bowed down in adoration.

I really like the contrast of the hard, dark metal against the fluffy, white snow.

And finally, the stunning jolt of turquoise against the snow. There are amazing color palettes all around - I really like the neutral background of the shed with a pop of the turquoise, which is quickly becoming a favorite color.
