I am sitting at my kitchen table looking out the big slider door, past my deck, to the winter wonderland that is outside in my back yard. I think I must have moved from the Pacific Northwest back to Colorado without realizing it. This is crazy! It has been snowing off and on for several days now but not sticking. That changed last night. It started snowing at about 4 pm and did so off and on all night. Every time I peeked my head out from the covers I could see the snow against the street lamp. This morning we had about three inches and it is still coming down. Not a lot I know but I can not remember when, in the last thirty some odd years, that we have had this much (or any)snow at the end of March. I dug out all the snow boots, mittens and gloves that I had packed away a few weeks ago after I made coffee this morning. I have put a coffee cake in the oven and apple cider on the stove. My children should be crawling out of bed (they stayed up late last night to watch movies) any minute and I have anticipated the gleeful shouts and dancing that should ensue. What a wonderful change from the rain. What a great (but hopefully temporary) trip back to winter. We are hosting a huge bowling party this afternoon and I hope that our plans are not thwarted! Excuse me, but I must go and sneak out and throw a snowball at my dog who is running in crazy frantic circles in the back yard! (:
