The Perfect Snow-Day

 We may have gotten a day off work because of the snowstorm today, but Old Man Winter is working overtime!  Snow has fallen all day, and temperatures are predicted to plummet into the single digits.
~CarrieAnne~
However nothing could stop us from enjoying time outside today.  Several times I bundled up and with my cameras all charged, the dogs and I played outside in the snow.
Josh (left) and Sheba think that a game of frisbee is fun in any weather!  
When we got cold, okay, when "I" got cold, we went inside.
Of course no snow day is complete without the proper snow-day food. We enjoyed biscuits and gravy for breakfast, pizza for lunch, and fresh baked cookies as a snack.  
It was, I think, a perfect snow day!
Whatever your weather was today, I hope it was a perfect day for you too!



**Thank-you all for your kind thoughts and healing vibes for our cat, CC.  Unfortunately she's not any better and is having problems standing.  The snow-covered roads wouldn't allow for a trip to the vet today, but thankfully CC is resting comfortably, and doesn't appear to be in any pain and will even purr when we hold her. **

  3. I really am hoping that CC will heal and get better soon.
    What a nice day for you and the dogs. We have been having rain all day and in the 70's. ARGGGG. I just would like for it to be nice and cold in the 60's. Yes cold for us to be in the low 60's.
    Stay warm. Ana

  5. The 1st photo is gorgeous like a Hallmark card.

    Oogie our cat when she was 13 she had kidney failure and we had to put her to sleep. We got Oogie for our daughter when she was 3 y.o. It was such a hard decision, to do the right thing on Oogie's behalf. My daughter cried for days and so did I. My heart was broken because I loved Oogie and it was broken even more because I knew how much my daughter loved her. I will be keeping you and CC in my prayers.

    Aroo to you,
    Sully and Robin

  10. Kim, hold CC close, she will cherish your care and love, and her purrs tell you all this and more. Maybe the road is snow-bound for a reason, take care, enjoy the outdoors when able to, caring thoughts for you all, Jean.

  14. Sweet Kim
    Were sorry to hear that CC is not improving. We know it breaks your heart to see this happen to her.
    We send comforting thoughts and peace to her- so that she feels the love you give to her. We know she does feel that peace-- we just ask for extra more.

    Your world is so beautiful. It would be hard to imagine having all that winter wonderland around us. What a wonderful day--- all the yummy foods and snacks,, and happy times with the dogs. The photos are so beautiful..
    love to all of you- especially CC.

  20. I hope CC is having a better day today. We seem to be having the same Artic winter weather. It is to cold for my paws and they say there is no change in sight for this cold. I like your coat Todd.
    Thanks for being a friend

  34. Hi Kim, Sorry to hear that the Rock of GP, your CC, is feeling poorly. Easton and I had a discussion and decided to cross our collective paws to pray for her quick recovery. Healing thoughts out to CC and our wish that things warm up quickly at GP.

  39. Hi Y'all!

    Oh wow! So much snow!!!

    I don't like stayin' out when it is cold and snowy. I always beat my Human back to the porch!

  40. Hi Kim, I love how the pack embraces the snow and has fun in it. Todd sure looks like he is in his element.
    We have sun here but snow promised for tomorrow night. For some reason, I am anxious for spring and we still have 3-4 mos before it arrives. Of course being stuck inside allows me to pack. I'm hoping CC remains comfortable, at least until you can get to the vet.
    Hugs,
    Noreen
