We received our first snowfall here at the lake.
Our totals didn't add up to what everyone else received in the surrounding areas of Michigan. We have just enough to let us know that Winter has arrived.
With the sun bouncing off the open water, plus the snow covered ground, it was brighter than usual this morning.
The first snowfall of the season is always a treat.
You can't help but feel the anticipation of the upcoming holiday season.
You slip on that old comfy robe from last Christmas, your heavy socks, and fluffy slippers...then put some water on for some hot tea.
You might even turn on a Christmas song....or two.

Debbie, Your snow looks prettier than ours...we got too much. LOL. The snow hides all the deris and makes the blue skies seem even bluer. Wishing you and yours a wonderful thanksgiving day filled with love and good food. Bless you my dear friend, love, Susie
ReplyDeleteLove that first picture for its frostiness !
ReplyDeleteI did almost what you did - heavy socks, baked a cake and put on a big pot of hot tea. Plus my favorite flannel shirt. We got 11" of snow yesterday!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your evening. xo
Glad you are enjoying it, Debbie. We still have not had ANY SNOW here yet. That is unbelievable for us. xo Diana

Yep, I've got my fleecy robe on and fuzzy socks, and we have a fire in the fireplace. Love your pretty pictures. We really got dumped on here, we never get this much so early!
ReplyDeleteDebbie,
ReplyDeleteYour photos are always relaxing ... Looking out at the Lake and seeing snow it is peaceful. We haven't had any snow yet. I find joy with the falling of snow at night, how it blankets the ground with pristine whiteness and quiets everything in a magical world of nature's beauty.
Xoxo,
Vera

Much awaited photo post of your snow on my end, it just is divinely peaceful, such a grand day here giving of thanks for all the blessings and to share it with your beauty, I would love to be your neighbor perhaps the White House with those grand pines in your window view :)
ReplyDeleteWe are expecting a much colder winter then we have had in some years now, in fact so much so we really thought a bit of frost would blanket our home, I know it's not snow as one would wish, but we will take any bit of white we can get.
Enjoy the beauty of your white Giving of Thanks.
Happy Thanksgiving,
I am off to cook now!

ReplyDeleteDebbie, Hi I love your house. I live in Hasting Mi. so I know about snow, lol . I just wanted you to know I grew up in Houghton Lake, did you go to school there.
ReplyDeleteHello Linda....I grew up in the Grand Rapids area, and we moved to Houghton Lake about fifteen years ago. I work at Kronners Pharmacy. Maybe we know some of the same people! thank you for stopping by, and leaving your comment. I couldn't find an email address to reply to, so I went this route.
DeleteHave a good week.
