A brief encounter

That is what we usually call it when it snows in Bellevue            

  I took a picture of hubby out clearing the driveway

Pretty soon the morning walkers came by with their dogs...snow did not keep them inside

Hubby sees them often,

maybe the dogs are his friends too

One more friend and neighbor was out walking  ( she does 5 miles a day) and she took a great picture

   You can see the mountain he has built and pretty
    soon there will be "more"  

And I was content to view the wonder of snow from inside, warm and cozy by the fire. So I sent a couple pictures to our friends in Florida.    I told them I would only go outside if Eleanor, next door, would come over.   Haha.   

 She did !!!

I hurried to find my snowsuit that I had not worn for many years. Actually, I needed help to get it all zipped up over my sweats and wool sweater.

Ready !  

Her greatest pleasure was rolling over and over in the snow...

And watching her daddy make the best snowman 

We had so much fun together... I am pretty sure she was not as tired as I was... but I hope she took a nap...it was her Mama's birthday and I think her daddy had big plans.

But it wasn't long before another friend came to the door...

Did you know it is the Chinese New Year ?   Well now we both know

No picture, but this lady has come to our door with many treats. Ever since hubby directed the school traffic, she has been thanking him.  She is a good neighbor, a very good neighbor.   

We are blessed

I live an exciting life
