If you're a West Michigander, you are probably quite aware that the January snow has arrived. From shoveling to snow plowing to slipping on those white-covered roads, winter is here. For awhile there, I thought we might not get any snow but I was definitely mistaken.
I'm sure the local children started jumping up and down and wailing when they discovered that school was cancelled Tuesday and today, but when I got the memo, I was unfortunately not as excited. I remember as a child watching the news station flip through the cancellations, crossing my fingers and toes in hopes that we had a snow day. As an hourly employee at the school now, I was a little disappointed. I actually enjoy working with the students everyday, hearing their extravagant stories, and watching them grow.
So, for the last two days, I have been bundled up, trying to keep myself busy as the wind blows outside my window. Who knows if we'll have a third snow day tomorrow but for once, I hope we do because my dad will be having surgery on his back tomorrow and I wish I could be there for him. We shall see.
I did venture into the cold abyss to capture the beauty of freshly fallen snow with my free time. Sadie, my black lab shepherd mix, loves to dive into the fluff. She is adorable with all those flakes on her black fur.
snowflakes a' fallin'
snow looks so beautiful perked on the branches
i borrowed my mom's boots and i definitely got some snow in my socks
sadie looks like she's stalking something
the boughs were sagging with all that snow hanging on them
close your eyes, let the snowflakes fall on your face, experience winter firsthand
