a better appreciation for snow . . .

A view of downtown Winnipeg on a normal, FREEZING winter day. Lasts MONTHS!
Snow in Raleigh (I think this was in January). Lasted no more than a couple days.

I grew up in Winnipeg, MB. I'm convinced their winters are THE WORST in the whole, wide universe! The ice 'n snow don't bother me nearly as much as the COLD!
Now that I'm in the south, I absolutely LOVE when it snows. You just don't expect it so it's exciting! Everyone chills, folks don't go to work and when it rarely snows..you don't take for granted when the flakes fall. The temperatures don't cause hypothermia in seconds either!
It's snowing as I speak and has been for a few hours now. I hope it sticks so we can make snowmen and maybe go sledding!

My favorite snow memory? Well, while I was fixin up a snack, Chris ran outside and wrote "I LOVE KIM" across the parking lot!! Super cute!!!!!! I tried to take a pic but it didn't work ):

Here's my attempt anyway.
