Snow At LAST!!

Yeah, yeah, yeah. The weather forcast says “Snow Showers.” But I’m not falling for that again. All winter long we’d be promised snow but it never, ever happened. It was a lame, LAME winter…for folks that love snow.

But then one glorious morning, we woke up to this!!

Wahoooo! At last, at last! Enough snow that it actually sticks and stays for more than 20 minutes.

Now, given the weather history this season, I’m not so naive as to think that it will be here tomorrow. In fact, I’ll be thrilled if it hangs on for a couple of hours.

I mean, honestly…

It’s so beautiful.

We’ll gratefully take what we can get.

At last.

The Big Snow Ripoff

We went all through Thanksgiving with no snow.

Not a flake.

Then came Christmas.

Still wearing sandals.

What is this, California?!

No. It’s Utah–you know–“the greatest SNOW on earth!”

A bunch of us actually love the stuff and we’re feeling teriffically scamed.

Then one night, for some odd reason, I was awake at 4 am. I just woke up and decided to see if it was even cold out side.

It was.

AND IT WAS SNOWING!!!!

It was covering the grass…

and my car! I was so happy!! At last, at last!! Snow!! Heeeee!

Of course It was gone by morning and the grass was as thick and green as the fake stuff at the soccer field. No one even believed me when I told them that it really did snow.

But I have a witness.

This dude saw it too.

So HA!

July Rain

I LOVE Rain. It’s my favorite weather of all time.

I should probably live in Forks.

Nearly Summer Snow

A few days ago we woke up to some crazy rain. I mean, like torrents of rain. For 4 or 5 minutes it even turned to hail. I was amazed that it wasn’t even all that cold outside…just wet. We found this odd pile of hail in one spot on the lawn that must have slid off the roof or something.

ANYway, the best part of all this moisture is…

what it does to our mountains.

Oooooh.

Not bad for nearly June–right?

Kitty Weather Whiplash

Chili is getting antsy. She reallllly wants to go outside but the weather won’t cooperate. We even put up pastel Easter lights–you know, to give Spring a nudge.
