It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look.....To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts. Henry Thoreau

Finally!
We poked our noses outside for the first time in a week or more.
Well, we've gone out to a couple stores, but it has been too cold to play in the snow.
Today it was so warm, I was tempted to run back in the house and put my bermuda's on. ;)
A very weird day.....misting freezing rain. Still, we took a double (double meaning two hitched together so Ella and Manny could both go) sleigh ride around the neighborhood.
Lots of fun. Might be even funner to go tonight and take in the Christmas lights!
I hope the snow sticks around. The other kids will be so excited to see it when they get back. When they left there wasn't a drop of it on the ground, now there must be at least a foot!
