YES, that’s what we had yesterday afternoon and overnight, amounting to — ready or not — less than an inch accumulation. Yet enough for Grenville to go around humming Jingle Bells, even if he is feeling the lingering effects of a sinus infection the past few days.
He’s been getting lots of rest and homemade chicken soup and napping on his favorite futon. Doesn’t he look cozy?
Of course, this snowfall was nothing compared to record snowfall amounts dumped on family, friends and fellow bloggers in the northeast US and Canada by snowstorm Nemo recently.
Still, it was a beautiful sight to see the snow in all its (short-lived) beauty early today. There wasn’t even enough for a snowman or snowball fight. Temps were still below freezing when I walked around the yard before breakfast. Snow, rain and then freezing temps caught the plants by surprise; some had been looking ready to bloom soon.
Pine trees looked especially beautiful “dressed” in snow.
This cardinal couple and some juncos were waiting for the feeders to be filled. Gardener frogs were ready for spring chores, despite the weather.Not all the F&P frogs shared their enthusiasm, but most DID.
Isn’t there supposed to be snow on pumpkins — not broccoli ?Views, front and back of our home, The Frog & PenguINN with the Let It Snow penguin flags (which sometimes work).
Once the backyard feeders were refilled, these colorful visitors came for breakfast and even shared.

Your poor Honey...although he does look very comfy and I know is being taken care of with all those fairies that have been hanging around your house! I only wish I could send you some of ours left from last weeks blizzard...today it is sooooo windy and bitter outside, it will re-freeze! Hmmm Tuesday, we're in for more supposedly...la~la, ho~hum...:)JP
The cardinals are so pretty, and I hope Grenville is feeling better soon. It's good you like snow - I suspect you'll get a fair amount when you move to NH :-)
What fun images. It's good that Grenville can get some rest instead of shoveling lots of snow. Love those froggies in the snow and the Cardinals are fantastic. :)
Great post! Love all your Cardinals.
Even up here, the first or even first few snows are welcomed (by me), so you are welcome to welcome this. You're welcome.
Thanks for dropping by my blog; I hope you will come again....
I think we got about the same about of snow....not much, uh? but your cardinals are beautiful....I really like the way you did mosaics of your pictures......
i like the butterfly and your house and the snow covered trees...
That's just a perfect ammount of snow, there's no use to get any more :-) :-)
Those Cardinals are just so beautiful! To bad we don't have them over here.
Have a great day!
Christer.
I'm glad to hear you got a little snow to enjoy. First time I've ever seen it covering broccoli! Looks like Pat is well taken care of.
just enough snow for some pretty pictures, your home is beautiful!!
your bird pictures are beautiful, you don't have to be close to get crip, clear pretty pictures!!
I enjoyed the pictures! What great cardinals... and cute frogs!
Nice tour around your yard and lovely collages! Too bad there wasn't enough snow for Grenville to get to shovel.....
Your one eyed frog (other eye covered with snow) looks rather disenchanted with the snow.
