Snow and lots of it!

Winter refuses to leave. On April 16, 2009, this is what we woke up to. Just a few days ago we were outside enjoying the 60 degree weather, and now look at it! I didn't believe the weather man when he predicted snow in the valleys. I thought "Yeah, sure the mountains will get snow, but I bet it will only rain down here in the valley." Boy, was I wrong!
Look at these poor blossoms on this drooping branch. I don't think even the blossoms saw this one coming. See, I am not the only one wanting spring to be here, even nature is confused!


Although I was unhappy that it had snowed, I could not resist taking pictures because it was just so beautiful! Everything as you can see was covered in white.

This is our street that we live on. We almost didn't make it out of our parking spot. I thought we were going to be stuck, but our ol' green machine bucked up and made it out!

Rob showing off the accumulation that we received, right before he scraped it all off the car. Unbelievable!

This is my favorite picture I took. On a positive note, this is my favorite type of snow. The kind that falls quickly, covers all the trees, melts fast, and allows the sun to still come out. Happy spring everyone!
