Saturday morning, Lucy woke me early and I dragged myself downstairs. After staying up well past my normal bedtime, I felt groggy and annoyed at having my warm and cozy dreams interrupted. A few minutes later, I was thankful to see the glorious sunrise. According to the pink sky peeping through the trees, we were in for a “red sky in morning, tigers take warning” sort of day. And the old proverb held true with winter weather and LSU headed our way.
25 degrees and I forgot to put my car in the garage…but see that pink sky?
Game day is always a simple pleasure. Especially with friends. And to shut out LSU? Now THAT was a thrilling pleasure.

Later the snow fell.
I love the tranquility of snow, the quiet, cold landscape, the way it transforms ordinary into art.
What’s better on a frigid day than leftovers? Not much.
And yay for my Sorel snow boots! I walk Lucy and Annabelle no matter how frightful the weather.
Here’s wishing you a week filled with warm memories and yummy leftovers!

You got those boots just in time. Love the pictures. We just got a “dusting”.
Not much stuck around here but it sure was pretty.
Missco peeps are the best! I had so much fun!
We had a light dusting of snow – looked like powdered sugar. It’s pretty but I prefer the warm.
Sounds like you all had fun!

I love the change of seasons:))
Reminds me that I better get my old Sorel boots in from the garage. Yours are much cuter! You are so positive no matter what the circumstances.
I’ve always loved the snow. Of course I’ve never been around tons of it.
I LOVE this weather! Makes me giggle 😀
me too!
I got to hang out with my handsome son for 3 hours Saturday night and won Perot Museum tickets and a gift card to Covino’s (yum) at the silent auction!
Sounds like fun!
We chose to pass on this past weekend — there were chores to be done here — hated to miss the game and the snow. We got a light dusting — nothing to complain about;) Love the boots.
It was probably a good weekend to skip, but we had fun tailgating and the tent was pretty cozy:)
Boots must be warm. I hate having cold feet. Good, as always.
