* * * An October SNOW * * *

Yes, doesn't that sound CrAzY?  We had SNOW yesterday!  In October!  Snow that stuck.  Big beautiful snowflakes.  Falling on our uncarved pumpkins.  On our beautiful red roses.  It was very strange, but oh so beautiful and a lovely gift from God.  Of course, the kids had to go out and play in it.  I haven't even got out winter coats and hats and boots and gloves, so we were not at all prepared.  To get by, we grabbed some gloves and hats and sent them out in their sweatshirts.  (my poor kids froze!) 

Let the building and fun begin....






(Fone was recovering from a cold and very happy to stay inside. And, of course, miss Rose watched and enjoyed the snow from our warm, cozy house!)

++Thank you, God, for surprise snowfalls in October and for getting to enjoy all four seasons here in the Midwest!!++
