Here in Boston, Friday was a snow day - a SNOW DAY! Is that not amazing??? I'm still not over it. Let's review: A day ... of snow. You with me? A SNOW DAY. Okay, I'm done.
Mr. Boyfriend and I had planned to travel to his parents farm in NH that night, but we left first thing in the morning to"beat" the storm. And good thing we got there before it hit - because once it started, it DID NOT STOP. It continued to snow (or at least sleet) until Sunday night - so we drove home through the blizzard in white-out conditions. Fun!
Anyway, the impromptu three-day weekend was spent having wintry farm fun. We slept in the newly finished barn to avoid kitties in the house and stave off allergy-induced asthma attacks, which was a cozy adventure.
We also tramped out into the woods to find some Christmas trees, and found great success. Pictures to follow...some day. We romped in the snow with their new border collie, Jim (I miss Jessie - what a wonderful dog) and the hammy mutt Tripp.
And then I shoveled the roof. Single-handedly. With my BARE HANDS and BRUTE STRENGTH. Just kidding, I used a trowel.
We gave Mr. Boyfriend's Parents homemade fudge and exchanged gifts, and had a very lovely time (except for that drive back).
Happy Holidays all!
