Pinecone Retrospective

Hi everyone,

Yes, more snow pictures!

Today I decided we would compare the pine cone pictures. The poor things are just covered in snow and ice today. We had about four inches of snow yesterday. I know that isn't a lot in some neighborhoods, but it's a bunch for us! We have had about ten inches total in the past week. Comments are below the photos.

This is the back corner of our yard. The white fence is very old, it was hand made by one of the original homeowners in our area. Our little neighborhood is over 100 years old and this fence belonged to a huge Victorian that used to be our neighbor. During our 13 years of owning our home, the Victorian home has been sold and the lot parceled off. We now have a modern duplex as our neighbor. But we still have the old fence. This was a long explanation to tell you that I love the way the snow has gathered in the crescent shape of the fence. I think it's very pretty, in that shabby chic kind of way. A few months ago one of the tenants of the duplex decided she would park her car in the back yard...she crashed into the fence and it now has a lovely hole in it.

You can just hear Ollie thinking "Mom, where is my freakin' sweater!?!"

Charlie is just thinking "yum! chilly snow is tasty!"

This is my lap while I am trying to type this post...I just don't have enough lap for three dogs and my laptop. I try to crochet this way too, all gifts include pug hair at no extra charge.

Have a great day!
