Walkin' In a Winter Wonderland

It was a marvelous winter wonderland here yesterday! The Cape doesn't get as much snow as the rest of Massachusetts, but yesterday we hit the jackpot! We got about a foot and a half of the white stuff. While the girls played, I shoveled. Today, I am feeling a few back muscles I had forgotten about. The best news was getting a call yesterday afternoon saying that schools were closed for today! It would have been cruel to send the kids to school when they could be outside sledding! I think my girls also might have some sledding off the back of a horse in their future today! So enjoy a few pictures from our winter wonderland. Later, I will go venture out and see what the beaches look like.....

How fun is it to have a White Christmas on the Cape? Now we need to find a good sledding hill. I'm not sure who is the bigger kid - the girls or the mother! Nana

Beautiful photos! Was thinking of all you Cape Codders yesterday....my sister-in-law in Eastham called to get the verbal "how to's" when it came to the generator from my husband. Hope you never lost power and able to enjoy the entire day!!! So pretty!!!

Love the lamp post shot. It reminds me of the Narnia Chronicles.

OMG, it IS a winter wonderland! Your front door looks like a postcard!!!!! Same with the lamp post. And the girls in the snow? Too cute!

But how the hell does one sled off a horse???

I thought of you when I heard how much snow the Cape got. We got less than 6" up here in our part of Maine. Enjoy!

The joy of a snow day! I hope it was awesome. Those are great pics and the lamp post one could be on a Christmas card.

The snow pics are terrific. I'm also impressed that the girls were prepared with the right clothes and sleds! :)
