Frostina the Snowgirl

     Okay, okay on to more exciting news!  It's snowing!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Living in Africa for a few years, we didn't get to experience seasons, let alone snow.  We have been excited about finally getting some snow where we live, but it hadn't snowed yet this winter.  Poor little Micah, bless his heart, has been praying and praying for snow.  Finally, yesterday, it started snowing and it's been snowing ever since.  We woke up to a beautiful white blanket covering our little section of town.

    Micah is away at his first sleep over (YIKES!), so Amarissa and I headed out to explore the snow by ourselves.  This is Amarissa's first real experience with snow, so she was really excited.  We even had to bring her baby doll, so she could experience it, too.

 We had a great time exploring our neighborhood all covered in snow.  Amarissa wanted to eat it, of course and I just loved taking lots of pictures.  Only wish our camera was a little better.  Oh well!!  We had a good time and that's really all that matters.





  

Good Morning, snow!!  A view from the back of our apartment

Our Narnia moment



Ready to go out into the snow


You can still get a drink of water

Covered benches


My little Frostina the Snowgirl trying to catch some in her mouth


Amarissa and Bina

Lots of people out walking their dogs


Amarissa insisted on walking in part that nobody else had walked in

Almost to the river



Down by the river, but not in a van

There were some crews out rowing on the lake


Yes, that is a crazy person going for a run in the snow
