Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow!

We had our first snow last week!  It came down so fast during the first hour, it seemed like we would get the 1-3 inches predicted by the local weathermen.  My sister lives about 150 miles north of us and they were supposed to get 3-5 inches.  They ended up with over 10 inches!!!  The snow was so wet and heavy, it snapped the power lines, leaving 9000 without power for many long, cold hours.  Kathy and her family finally had the power restored 26 hours after it first went out!

We, on the other hand, were much luckier.  The snow tapered off after that first couple of hours, leaving us with about 1 1/2 - 2 inches of the wet stuff.  It was beautiful, though, like a Christmas snow.  The flakes were about the size of a quarter! 

The first 3 photos are taken from our porch, looking across to the old high school gymnasium.  See how fast and heavy the snow was coming down?!  In the last one, I'm trying to capture the size of the flakes.

Here are some pins I found on Pinterest, featuring...SNOW!

Here's Vaughn Monroe singing "Let It Snow." You might remember a slightly different version of this song on the first DIE HARD with Bruce Willis.  Don't forget to pause my music listed at the bottom, before listening to this!

Sundays with Santa - Felt Santa Pillow

I found this felt Santa pillow on Pinterest tonight.  There's a pattern provided, and directions on the website.  I may try to make this a bit smaller, for an ornament.  Santa's face is sooo cute, don't you think!

I found this sweet little felt ornament on Pinterest the other night. 
It has "Christmastime" written all over it!



 

I think I might try my hand at making some of these for our tree this year.  There are a few other ornaments that I want make that I found there.  That's what's so great about Pinterest - so many wonderful ideas available!

I'm also linking with Natasha's Pinning and Singing Weekend Party.

For my song, here's one I grew up with...
There's No Place Like Home for the Holidays by Perry Como. 
It brings back lots of great memories of Thanksgiving and Christmas!

There must be something wrong with Pinterest this week.  All I've seen so far on my blog and others' is the link, no pictures!  Hope they fix it soon!!!

Thanks to Natasha, I've discovered Pinterest!  I don't know whether or not to be happy about this!  It seems that's all I do anymore!  I saw a pin similar to this one I made, but I couldn't get it to resize correctly, so I made my own.  Anyone else feel this way???  If so, feel free to take this button! :)

Take care and God Bless!
