Saturday morning brought us big beautiful snowflakes.
They started melting as soon as it stopped snowing but I am happy that I got to see them anyway!
And that I got to enjoy them with some of my kiddos!
I am hoping we get more before the winter is over!!!
Last weekend was a little different than the one before it.
My husband thought that the snowy Saturday was a perfect time to go get some logs.
It did make for a pretty backdrop.
My adventure loving boys enjoyed the obstacle course.
This boy insists on covering his face when it is cold.
Something about keeping warm.
Crazy.
Doesn’t he understand I need pictures of his cute face?
At least my oldest understands.
Of course there was sledding when we got home!
What do you like to do when it snows?
I have a lot of other things I should be blogging about.
I am way behind in our curriculum posts.
But I looked out my window this morning and saw the beautiful sun rising over the new snow.
All I could think was that line in Robert Frost’s Poem “Nothing gold can stay.”
So I went for a walk around our yard, trying to capture the magic that was happening before me.
This above image is the one I pictured in my head before I went out.
I knew I wanted to use my 50mm 1:1.4, just for this image.
I am glad I was able to find it!
The birds were serenading me the whole time.
Beautiful.
I followed the sun.
What an amazing way to wake up.
Following the sunlight through the snow.
I decided I wanted to add something to my non-existent bucket list.
Watch the sun rise and set every day for a month.
“So dawn goes down to day./ Nothing gold can stay.”
