The snow is perfect! It's fluffy and just wet enough to stick to itself so it doesn't go flying in your face all the time. It's even fun to shovel because it's so light and stays nicely together when you've throwing it around. And it makes marvelous snowballs. Plus, it was warm enough outside to be pleasant.

Mella's actually learned about avoiding snow, or at least avoiding the door when I'm laughing at her. Next up, I'm hoping she'll figure out that she needs to come to the front door if she wants to be let in rather than waiting miserably under the porch for us to realize she's out.
