winter is here, kind of

we have had some absolutely beautiful snowy days. unfortunately, the weather can't seem to make up its mind. one day, beautiful snow, next day, pouring rain and ice. kinda like today and tomorrow's forecast. oh well, such is life. but much like our warmer than usual fall, winter has been equally unpredictable ranging from -20F to +40F within 48hr periods.

the one thing that stays the same is how pretty it is!

fun fireworks

beautiful bright lights over lake champlain as the clock struck the new year.
i just thought it was fun, so im sharing some of the good ones.

happy holidays

though i'm behind (sadly it's been a trend so far in 2012). here is my holiday card. summarizing my more than spectacular year+.

wishing you a happy and healthy 2012!
