We're home and it feels so good! Yesterday when we left Santa Fe it was lovely out, the sun shining and hubby was wearing shorts but by the time we arrived home last night the snow was falling. This was our yard this morning and as much as I love the snow and living here it made me wonder what type of winter we are in for if the snow is here already. Two years ago it wasn't snowing until Thanksgiving and last year it didn't start until December and was quite light all winter but it is just barely October. Hubby and I hit the grocery store last night to stock up for the weekend just in case and I can say I'm glad we did. I think I'll be quilting a lot this year.
Have a blessed weekend.

  2. I always loved the first snow and how pretty it was, but this is really a little early. So glad you have a lot to keep you busy inside. Hugs, Marty

  3. It's beautiful!
    We had a gorgeous summer with lovely cool temps. We both believe we will pay for it, this winter. The leaves are changing about 2 weeks ahead of last year. I can't remember when we saw our first snow, but I think it was in late November/early December. Wouldn't surprise me if it's earlier and heavier this year.

  5. How finilar that looks and i wonder why?? (o:
    I wish it would wait, but it will be what it will be.
    I would say that over the years we can expect some 'weather' around Halloween, but this is early. The reason i want it to wait is that spring snows and cold are so much more prevalent than they use to be.
    You said you would be quilting...sounds good. I say I will be stuck indoors to long with 5 kids (o: I keep reminding myself that planning crafts and activities is the key (o:

    Glad you had fun. Sorry you had to come home to cold. Come by...I always miss it when you don't comment (o:

  7. I love Santa Fe too! My husband is from New Mexico and we would love to live in the Santa Fe area but that would be too far away from all the grandbabies :-) I just started quilting within the last two years after retiring! My grandmother used to do it all the time and it is something I always wanted to do. Now I'm teaching myself how to do it :-) Loved the picture - new snow always looks so clean and fresh!

  13. This is a little early - but the last 2 years have been late and very mild. It is usually around Halloween we get the first snow, but it has snowed as early as Labor Day! Glad you are back safe from Santa Fe.
