First Snow of 2009

Bailey & Pixel

Yesterday is snowed in the Netherlands and I woke up and squealed like a crazy person.  Thankfully I was home alone as it was one of the few days this month that my husband was called in to work.  I thought about going out to take photos but it was so dark and dreary that I decided not to.  This morning we had a bit more snow and I went out with hubby and the dogs to snap a few while we went for a walk.

Here are some photos of the three loves of my life:

First, my darling husband, who stole my hat to wear because his new one itches.  You can’t see me in the photo but I’m wearing the itchy hat, and yeah it itched me too.  The things we do for love!

This was only Pixel’s second time ever seeing snow. Last year she was still quite young and was not at all a fan.  She’d scoot around in it but for the most part she’d whine and want to go inside.  Much the same as when it rains or… the wind blows.  She’s such a princess.

Bailey is an old pro at the snow thing by now.  At the ripe old age of 6, he’s been there and done that, but it doesn’t stop him from still digging around and trying to find some tasty poopsicles.

I would share some photos of myself too but I hate photos of me and thankfully, while he has many other talents, photography is not something my husband does very well. 

First Snow 2009

It was nice to see the sun starting to shine as we were heading home.  We don’t see nearly enough sun in the winter here in the Netherlands.   To have snow and sun on the same day, well… it just can’t get any better than that.

p.s. I case you are wondering about the dogs not being on leashes, they actually were.  I photoshopped them out because they were ugly.

  1. Yeah, it was really beautiful here in Utrecht today, blue sky and lots of snow on the ground, and every kid in the neighborhood was out playing in it. I sent mine out too – they groused, but ended up having a blast.

    Me, I hate snow, but today I hate it a teeny bit less.

  3. LOVE the photos! Bailey and Pixel are so darn cute..your darling husband isnt to bad either..tee hee. We have about the same amount of snow over here..not a whole lot but enough to smile really big. The sun is nice isnt it. I was turing the lights on around noon a few weeks ago because of how dark it was.

    Lets hope this is the begining of more snow to come!
