The Snowy Season Begins

I have been dreading it. All along I knew it was coming..... the snow.... all the snow......inches and inches of it. It is here now. The snowy season has begun. It's not so bad, I guess. It is beautiful, and most of all, makes everything feel so much like Christmas. Remington, our black lab, can't be out in it enough. Neither can my kids. The white dots in the picture are snowflakes. We have about 6-7 inches on the ground. I know that number will grow, and for now, I am used to the idea.
