Out the window I looked after getting off the bed on a Thursday morning. It's true, it was snowing. The weatherman had said we'd get snow after it rained during the night. The fluffy snowflakes were gently falling to the ground. These are the kind of snowflakes I've been waiting for.
~THIS IS THE KIND OF FLUFF I LIKE~
Quietly covering everything. Wanting another snow before SPRING. We're really not that far into the WINTER, but I seem to grow weary of the bitter cold. With the trees bare, grey skies, breathtakingly bitter, I desired another snow for beauty and moisture.
The flocked tree upstairs will be placed in the screen in porch so I can turn the twinkle lights on during the evenings and enjoy a WINTER WONDERLAND right outside the french doors. I've never had artificial christmas trees out longer than January, but think this could be fun having twinkle lights during the cold months of KANSAS.
I've enjoyed our large CHRISTMAS tree in the Living room for 5 weeks and have delayed taking it down until after EPIPHANY. Our first CHRISTMAS in this Prairie house. I'm moving slow at getting settled in.
I'll have to turn the CHRISTMAS clock sounds off as it plays CHRISTMAS tunes on the hour. Jingle Bells just chimed. Not sure I will put it away until SPRING. The clock has snowmen on the front of it. Perfect for January as well. Maybe February.
Hearts are coming out replacing CHRISTMAS. Red is a beautiful WINTER color. Brilliantly warming.
Making HOME a priority in this fallen world,
