The fresh fluff, otherwise known as “powder” in snow language, came down Saturday night. We got about four inches at our house. The wind stopped and when we woke up Sunday morning it was just beautiful outside. Everything looks better with fresh snow, and when it is below zero, it sparkles so in the sunshine.
Mom had to take some photos of things around our yard because they look so nice. Bailie likes to keep tabs on what Mom is up to from the front window. The pine bushes too are covered in a layer of white fluff.
The bird house in the front yard has a nice coating of snow on the roof. Birds never seem to live in the little home, but it looks nice hanging from the tree during all the seasons. There is a small business not far from us that sells cute metal things. Mom buys things down there for our yard now and then.
I headed out to the yard for a good sniff around after our walk. The snow isn’t wet, so it doesn’t turn into snowballs in our beards, which is nice. My ear and beard look more like they have dandruff than a coating of snow.
No one was out and about early Sunday as it was Sunday, and the roads were still pretty slick. Even our group of mailboxes look nice on the roadside with the dollops of snow on them. We think just looking at this photo, you can feel the quiet peacefulness at the time the photo was taken. It is a simple shot that conveys a lot.
Olivia has more snow in her beard as she spends more time outside sniffing around. Her nose is the busiest in the family by far. She has a few little snowballs from her breathing that melts the snow around her mouth.
In the very back of our yard we have trees with red berries. The birds eat on them all winter we are told. Isn’t it cute how the snow sits on top of the berries? Some fresh fluff makes them look like a real dessert, berries with whipping cream!
Not to worry, we are still feeding the squirrels their squirrel food. We are pretty sure the squirrels are eating from the feeders in the snow as the snow isn’t piled up as much on one side of the tray. Those critters hang off branches to grab food. They are truly nuts!
Bailie also has some snow fluff on her facial furs. From the scowl she is wearing, I don’t think she feels like having her photo taken. Oh well, Mom takes photos when she wants to, so we have a scowling one!
Finally, we have our camper bird house, also with a blanket of fresh fluff. I don’t think anyone is camping in there during the winter, so it will not cause any trouble for campers. Hope you enjoyed a bit of the beauty we got to see Sunday morning. It is so much better in person, but a few photos do manage to show some of the beauty nature gives us!
My GBGV Life is joining Comedy Plus for Awww Monday today.
Your camper birdhouse is so cute! Have fun in your powdery snow, girls. That’s how mine has been for days now and it’s wonderful!
Powder is the best because it is so easy to run through and it doesn’t stick to our furs.
that has something when all things wear a white cap in the morning ;O)
Lots of white hats again this morning as we got more fluff overnight.
It’s all so beautiful. Your pups are the most beautiful and I know they love the snow, but the shots are so beautiful. Fresh snow is the best and waking up to this winter wonderland would be most wonderful.
Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. Scritches all around and my best to your mom. ♥
The soft fluff is so pretty in the morning when the sun comes out. It’s also much easier to walk through than heavy wet snow.
What lovely “Rust -tic” photos of the camper and little house! We love the mailboxes -they DO say a lot!!! And girls…it is a dandruff day!
This winter is a pretty good one so far. Lots of cold weather and lots of snow. We love it all.
So very pretty. I dream about snow sometimes. It is in the 30s here this morning! Thete was frost! XOXO Sparkle
That is cold for FL! Hope you all get to a hotel today so you can live decent until they fix your water issues. Here it would be a frozen water pipe, but I don’t think it is cold enough for that in FL.
oh we definitely had “fluff” this morning and it’s currently “fluffing” as I type this! “Fluff” is supposed to steadily fall until 7pm today!
We got about 2″ Friday evening, then the 4″ Saturday evening, and another 2″ last night. Now we are pristine white and fluffed as we dive below zero for a couple days. Enjoy the pretty snow.
No snow here. We did have some pretty good frost cover this morning….it really holds the smells!
Anything cold changes the odor picture totally. Mom loves to take us tracking in the snow since the odor drops and doesn’t spread, she finds it funny watching us stick our heads in the snow to follow the track 🙂
Such pretty white fluff, we especially like seeing your bird camper covered with snow 😉
We love our bird camper, but it is the closet we will ever come to owning a camper! Mom likes driving fast and hotels, so camping/RVing is out for us.
Looks so beautiful but I’m glad I am in a warm house while I look at the pictures
Winter is not the season for everyone, but we do love it.
wonderful photos- it looks like you all got a lot of snow judging from the mailbaoxes being lowered by the snow? Cheers!
So far it has been a good winter with a lot of snow and also real cold days. We are enjoying it!
Snow is beautiful, your mom got some great shots!
Thank you. We love how it sparkles like diamonds but we can’t seem to capture that in photos.
Those are all such pretty snow photos!!! We’re sure glad ours is gone.
Snow isn’t for everyone. We will gladly keep ours until March sometime if possible.
We have not had any fresh snow and outs is getting pretty dingy. You have some great snow in yard shots! (and snow in dogs’ beards). We love your metal art. It looks absolutely gorgeous in your photos. And your photos ROCK!
Awww, thank you. Hopefully you will get some fresh snow to give things a fresh look soon.
