A Wayward Winter

There are eleven days left of Winter, but that hasn't stopped the snow before. When I was in first grade there was snow on the first day of Spring. Unlike the last post, I have some pictures to display for you. I hope you like them, and enjoy the snow!
This is a large cedar tree on our property. I really liked the contrast of the green of moss and the white of the snow. I think it creates a nice effect.
Looking out the front door...
The view out my bedroom window. And I had to drag chickens in, since this is a chicken blog. I took Meez for a short walk, keeping her quite warm of course. However, I had an "Anna incident" as I have come to call it, and I put her away soon after. Enjoy the snow while it last and for those of us who are in school: Keep your fingers crossed for a snow day tomorrow!

I'm dreaming of a white....March?

For around the fifth time, I find myself posting about snow.... Well, it is back folks! Hail and snow came down in a mix last night, and today everything was covered with a blanket of white. We took advantage of it by going over to our neighbors house and doing an all-out snowball fight. Our aim really improved throughout the morning, and by five o'clock tonight I was able to hit Emma from twenty yards away, and that was with a moving target. We all improved dramatically, and are ready for the next snow day(or two-hour late day!!!)! Hopefully we will get some more snow tomorrow! Keep your fingers crossed!

Its Back!

Yay the snow has returned! And in February too! I don't think we have had snow in February before in a long time. Two hour late start, hurray!

Snowy plumage..... and weather

Lemony has the coolest plumage of all the chickens, in my opinion. She is black and brown with a dusting of white. It looks like it has snowed on her. Speaking of snow, we got an unexpected flurry of it today. It was quite nice, but I wish it had gone on longer. These pictures of Lem are before the snow.

This last one makes it look tropical!

I miss the snow!!!

This was my old view out my window. It was just so beautiful. I really want it to snow again, and I know quite a few who disagree. Winter is the greatest season! Come back snow!
