I travel the world and am truly amazed with the sights, cultures, and people but in my eyes there is no place like home.

Winter wonderland Weeked














A few weekends ago while we were cheering on the Creighton Jays at a basketball game it started to snow. At the time they were predicted maybe four inches. My parents suggested I should come home with them and hibernate in the shack with a fire and movies. I figured why not. It has heat, we just got the sate light installed so endless tv options, I had a book I was reading, and lots of cozy blankets, plus wine and snacks.




I woke up the next morning to way more than four inches of snow! But man was it gorgeous. I love when it snows out in the country. Everything has the pretty blanket of white and it sparkles.




It had snowed all night and was still snowing pretty heavily. Big gorgeous flakes. Without a doubt I was grateful it was Sunday and I was in no hurry to get anywhere.


Instead I decided might as well throw more logs ion the fire, find a few movies (as the sate light quit working), and relax with some wine. Quite the perfect snowed in Sunday. Don't worry I didn't drink even half of this wine!


 
 
I easily could have stayed snowed in another day or two. Was awesome to not have anywhere I needed to be and no "chores" to be done. Nothing to do but truly chill. So glad my parents fixed this adorable shack back up. I'm always so proud of my dad and brothers that they built this from scratch. It's the perfect easy hideaway when needed.

Justin's Winter Wonderland


A few pretty pictures of Justin's new acreage. It's so peaceful and pretty at his house and the snow made things even prettier.

I love that he even has a clothes line! Not sure how much he will use it but I have wanted a clothesline for years and they seem hard to find anymore.

Snowy Mornings


Somehow a coating of snow makes everything look magical. A few quick Iphone/Instagram pics showcase my backyard yesterday morning with a blanket of snow.

Bring on the Snow


Of course I am joking, the last thing I want is another 5-7 inches of snow. (Yes they are predicting more snow this week!) I am trying to think positive, so wanted to share these photos from Niobrara this weekend.



Somehow with the snow it looks more artistic, less abandoned old run down buildings.




Even the bridge and un-channeled wild Missouri River looks better with a coat of snow.


The worst winter since 1960ish is good for pretty photos even if it isn’t good for one’s sanity!
