First Snow

December 9, 2009

There's something really magical about the first snow of the year. It's so perfect, undisturbed.

Last night around midnight, it started to snow.


It snowed and snowed, and I got more and more excited.

I even tried to wake Nathan up.

I had this whole idea of the three of us sitting in the dim glow filtering in from all of our huge windows, sipping hot chocolate. I pulled up every single one of our blinds. Actually, I made Andrew do it. But all our blinds were open. I wanted to see as much of it as I could.


Nathan wouldn't have any of it. He wanted to sleep.
