Snow days

School went back this morning after two days off, just in time for me to go the store and restock on food essentials as we ready ourselves for the next wave of snow over the weekend.

Here’s a few pics from our home.

This was taken early in the day. As they headed out it started dumping snow. I was thankful for my friends who added them to the sled gang in the park. I stayed home cooking with baby girl.

And enjoying this view of my patio. Half the chickens would not come out of the coop. Because it was 23 degrees. Our dog loves the snow. The cat hides inside sleeping on heat vents. 

That is Cottontail. She’s my favorite chicken. She’s an Americana and she lays blue eggs. She’s Martha Stewart’s favorite breed of chicken. If we are going to have chickens they might as well be designer. It make’s it more fun.

This is favorite spot at the park. Yes it is a full life. Yesterday morning I snuck in a quick morning walk alone, and did my morning meditation here.  Last year in the snow I sat her pregnant, before we knew she was a girl, before we knew she was going to be perfectly healthy. It was a great sit yesterday on this bench, with my snow dog by my side.  Dad was at home with baby girl.
