Southern California's version of winter storms finally arrived this weekend and a time to stay inside, fireplace blazing, and mugs of hot tea.
And three-year olds.
Where upon I closed my laptop for the weekend and spent lots of hours drawing, building with blocks, making popcorn and jello jigglers, pillow fights and occassion forays out under the covered patio so the boys could get a little fresh air. Hubby roughhoused with them and picked them up so they could touch the ceiling. We ate hotdogs and watched silly movies (it was a kind of creature feature weekend on sci-fi).
All in all, a fun but tiring weekend. When they went home last night I knew I'd be missing them soon...but not too soon. Gotta have my Wheaties first.
This morning arrived bright and cold (below 40). And as you can see above, the local mountains are covered with that strange white stuff we see so little of. Snow levels fell to between 1500 - 2000 ft. I'm at about 1200. But the snow on the southfacing slopes in the picture will shrink upwards during the day. So I'm enjoying the view while I can.

Had some snow (or maybe slush) on the deck here in Eagle ROck.
Reminded me of the time in 1948 when it actually snowed a coupla days....
