5 on the Fifth -- The Blizzard Begins

I saw on the Life in the Day website that he was taking part in the 5 on the 5th event, an idea from State of the Nation UK . The theme this time around was City Life, and since we are getting the start of a blizzard in the city, I thought I document how we are enjoying the storm.  These are taken with my iPhone, so I apologize for the quality.

It is about 10 pm on Friday night and this is the view out our front window. We're listening to music, drinking wine, and watching the snow. It could pile up to 2 feet. We're glad we're inside watching.


This is the top of our coffee table with our various remotes, our Netflix movie (The  Hurt Locker) and The Music Man, which we just got in the Blu-Ray format.

You can't expect us to suffer through a blizzard without a few extra snack, can you?

This is Shane sitting at our table in the front window, drinking wine and watching the snow fall.

"Flowers in the dead of winter!"  That's a line from The Waltons Christmas movie, The Homecoming, which I posted on here at Christmas.  These are daisies that still look as fresh as daisies after a week.
