Walking in a Winter Wonderland

I was just getting ready to compose a letter to Old Man Winter about how much I dislike being cold and how much I miss summer.  And then, the arctic temperatures paid off.  Flakes began to fall.  And fall.  And fall.  And then I got the call that school was cancelled. :)

As much as I dislike the cold, I do enjoy a snow day.

And, there is something simply wonderful about the excitement children have over playing in the snow.

And, there is something magical about watching your yard being transformed into a Winter Wonderland amidst the Christmas decorations.

Magical indeed.
