FIRST SNOW

Last night I got a knock on my door from a very excited friend Annie X.  She ran to my window and we looked outside.  It was SNOWING!  Later she said she came to me first because as a fellow Gilmore Girls fan I would understand the importance of the first snow.  Isn't it magical? Well we ran outside with some other enthusiasts and there were about 100 other Freshman taking it in as well.  You could definitely tell who had and who hadn't seen snow before. 

You may think the girl in the purple had never seen it before and didn't know what was coming, but no she's an Alaskan....she's that used to the cold.

 It had mostly melted by the time I went to bed....but this morning I woke up to this:

view from my window

ok,ok, it doesn't look like that much but trust me it's better in person.  I accidentally left my camera at home so I had to take a picture with my phone.

So to celebrate, I am getting ready for the day while listening to Christmas music.  As SheDaisy says in their song The Secret of Christmas, "Christmas is in the air!" At least it is for me.  Snow is magical and I absolutely love this time of year and not just because my birthday and Christmas are coming up.  But because of everything that the Christmas season entails.

WELCOME WINTER!!!!  (but I'll miss FALL, since we never really had one)
