Very Early First Snow Fall 2011...

So yesterday was like every other day, cold and a little gloomy - nothing too different to the other Fall days... At about 3:00pm I saw a few sprinkles of what looked like snowflakes, but I wasn't sure, so I went to go and look out the living room sliding door and it was indeed little snowflakes! I got so excited that I called Dustin and excitedly told him, he laughed at me and said he thought it might snow!! It was totally unexpected so I was totally unprepared. I decided to go outside because it was a few here and there coming down, but as soon as I stood on the balcony a white sheet just all of a sudden took over the sky, it started falling thick and so I got even more excited! Lol...

It didn't stick though, it just fell to the ground and almost melted immediately, but it was pretty for those few minutes anyways :) Max however, enjoyed his first ever snowfall, he was a bit confused in the beginning with what this foreign white stuff was falling on him and the ground, but it didn't take him long to run to each snowflake that fell on the balcony to lick it up :)

It gets dark pretty quickly now since we had Daylight Savings, so I noticed it was snowing AGAIN later on at about 5:30pm, and this time it was heavy snowing and it was STICKING!! It was so beautiful and as always so peaceful in the evenings when it snows! I'm sure the other people in the other apartments saw my camera flashes and if they did, I'm sure they thought I was some crazy weird person! LOL... Anyways I took some pics of the second lot of snowfall we had, we didn't have much, but it was still super exciting for me over again.

I got a few pics with Max, Dustin wasn't home yet so he isn't in any...

So we had a very early first snowfall, but I cannot WAIT until it really starts to snow and sticks!! :)

Halloween 2011...

Last night I knew that we wouldn't get any trick or treaters in the apartments so we put Max in his Halloween outfit we got him this year, put our coats on and set out to walk the neighborhood so I could see the trick or treaters outfits and the houses that were decorated...

Max got pretty excited in the beginning seeing new people, but he did really well all in all, he calmed down quite a bit and we held him some of the time. He looked so darn cute in his Bumblebee outfit running around on his leash on the side walks :)

I got a few pics of the few houses that had lots of lights and decorations, and some pics of Dustin and I with our Bumblebee... :)
