The First Real Snow

It has been a very mild winter here in Michigan, and just after Christmas we got our first real coating of snow! It was beautiful, and just after the snow there was an odd, calm little wind and for some reason it was not freezing.  I thought it was the perfect time to go out and take some pictures and attempt to adjust to the 50mm lens I got for my birthday.

I am in love with the big pine tree on the side of our house. It holds the snow so beautifully and I am fascinated by it like a little kid.  I am looking forward to the next nice coating of snow and exploring some of the trails to soak up all the pretty!

Sunday Drive

We found this little spot while on a Sunday drive... cliche, but true. It is so pretty here (in Michigan) right now that I thought I would share.

I can't get over the colors we are seeing right now.  It never gets old... every year it feels like it couldn't have been that good the year before.  I love it!
