and more snow!

this winter has been crazy! we've gone from windstorm to rainstorm to snowstorm a number of times now, with people all over the state losing power more than once. the rivers are flooding, the roads are icing, tree branches are cracking, and skiiers are probably in paradise. the weirdest part is that christina told me last weekend it was 70 degrees on the north shore, and that it hasn't really snowed there all winter! what is going on??

actually, i love it, of course. i love waking up and peeking out the frosty window, and seeing the ground covered in white. i love noah's expression when snowflakes fall in his eyes, or when aaron throws snowballs at me. it's funny, because we thought moving here from new england meant sacrificing these simple pleasures. apparently not! it only means sacrificing city snowplows.

here are some photos from our neighborhood during yesterday's storm. we ventured downtown for mother's group at a coffeeshop. noah fell asleep on the wintry walk home.
