Walkin' In a Winter Wonderland

So, yes, I did just go out all by self and frolic in the snow. Trust me, frolic is the best fitting word here. I danced. I jumped. I threw snow balls. I made a snow angel. I accidentally fell into a ditch that I couldn't see because of all the snow at the exact same time a car was passing by. I laughed at myself. I wrote in the snow. And I took a million little pictures. And then I came in and treated myself to hot chocolate!!

Sheer bliss!

...Yes, I am a 21 year old woman and I did all this--alone. I'm sure the neighbors think I am special... But hey! All you need is an imagination and a love for snow!!

So without further ado*, here are some of today's snapshots.
*No, not Adele, just ado... (Do you at least get that, Nancy?!)

This is what you see when you look out the living room windows.


The view looking out the front door.


Outside the house.


Down the street of the Houtlaan.


The stream through the neighborhood.


Absolutely perfect snowball snow!


Bike path through the wooded area.


After realizing I could totally put my camera on self-timer.


The message I left you in the snow. Hah!


So the obsessed middle schooler in me came out, too. :)


It's snowing in the Houtlaan!


Standing outside with my mouth open wide... Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
Anyone know that song?!


I'm no Angel*...
But I made one in the snow!
*That's for you, Faith.


Hot Chocolate!


Nothing says "I'm staying warm and sexy" like my 12 year old nephew's pullover, SV's old hunting leggings (complete with crotch "pocket"), and fuzzy pink socks!


Me, completely and utterly happy, after a day of romping in the snow!
