Snow in April? WTH?

Are you kidding me? After all this nice spring weather we've had, it snowed today. What an odd sight. They were big ol' honkin' flakes, too. It only lasted a few minutes and then the sun was shining again. Ohio has the weirdest weather.

Snow covered cherries...err, crabapples

We were blessed with a beautiful snowfall last night. The flakes were huge and slow, watching them fall was mesmerizing. It was the kind of dangerous snow that put you in a trance when you're driving. Luckily, I wasn't driving. But unfortunately, I was working so I was unable to get any shots of this gorgeous snow in action. My neighbor's tree is stunning with the bright red cherries (or whatever they really are) and snow covered branches. I just wish their neighbor's ugly green truck wasn't in the background. Phle!

Edited to add: My dear friend MaryAnn informed me that these little red dangly things are not cherries (as I suspected), but rather they are crabapples. Now the funny thing about that is I grew up with crabapple trees when I lived out in the country. And my crabapples NEVER looked like this. These are the sorriest little crabapples I've ever seen. LOL Thanks for letting me know, MaryAnn!! :)

First snow day

If you couldn't tell, I'm having issues getting my almost 2 year old to look at me when I have a camera in my hand. It's like he knows I want something specific and he's refusing to comply. Now, when I put the camera down, he's all smiles and giggles, looking right at me. Little snot.

Since he was so little last year, he never had his first outing in the snow. We haven't really had a good snow without below freezing temperatures until just recently. So here we are, braving the cold. He was fine, I was freezing. I think it's time to find my winter coat. It's pathetic snow, but it's snow nonetheless. He looks like Scott in this picture.
