On a Cold Winter’s Morning…
I look out from my back porch to the lovely sight of the snow falling. I shiver a bit because it’s single digits- but I don’t care. My son jokes that we went from triple digit temperatures to singles. That’s okay with me. It’s winter. This is what I expect this time of year. This is what I would consider normal for January. I have to say I am sooooo loving it. I really can’t get over that it’s real. We really live here. I think we lived in a place so vastly different than here for so long that we never thought we would get out. The idea of leaving was always in our heads, wanting, hoping & wishing for something to change. It finally did but it just doesn’t seem possible. How we managed to pull it off is incredible. Still a few more things to take care of to make the transition complete, but we are nearly done. What a great feeling to look out, have this amazing view to enjoy & know that it’s FOR REAL.

These are gorgeous! I can imagine how you must feel to wake up to this now. After our years of living in Thailand with year round summer, I had a hard time adjusting to seasons. But, now I have come to appreciate the winter and enjoy the coziness. It gives me an excuse to slow down a bit, and enjoy creature comforts.
So pretty and beautiful captured.
I love to watch the snow fall. So clean, so quiet so pristine. Enjoy that view, it’s a beauty!
Glad you were able to make this happen.
=)
My goodness, what a gorgeous view!
You certainly do have a beautiful view! So glad you are settling in nicely!
That IS beautiful…GOD’S timing is perfect even when we sometimes think not…I LOL about the triple digits and now down to single digits…Pretty amazing…
The lowest I’ve seen Vegas get is 25 degrees…Brrrr…
Amazing! <3
So happy for your family!!!!
What a view!! Wow! So happy you have this amazing opportunity to live in such a gorgeous place!
We, too, have winter, but the temperatures are only slightly below freezing. After two days of snow, things seem to be melting a little. I really don’t like the slush that results. Maybe more snow will come later!
N I C E ! I love a good snow fall–the beautiful silence, the peaceful bliss of knowing nothing can make it stop or start and so you just have to accept it. I am glad you and your family is enjoying winter again, even though I am now escaping it. I did have snow and cold before last week, so I am not a total wimp.

that was supposed to be “are”, not “is”. GROAN.
Such beautiful scenery. Love it.
Wow. That’s from your back porch? Beautiful! So proud for you guys!
I can understand how you must still be in the ‘I can’t believe it stage’ – what a complete difference in climate (currently experiencing heat wave/ bush fire threats over here). You sound like you’re cherishing it so much.
Wow, looks like a picture postcard!
How peaceful and pristine. Beautiful!
Winter looks so beautiful through your camera lens! Hope you’re doing well, Gigi!
Beautiful! Looks like winter for sure.
Beautiful! I would love to see that, but I don’t think I could live there. I am ready to move to the Caribbean. lol
