Yep, we're still doing our annual tradition of hand-cutting paper snowflakes and taping them to our living room window. The dark profile hides the fact we reuse our office print paper to make these; in full sun, they're quite colorful and patterned. While it will occasionally snow in the mountains south of here every couple of years (shocking, I know, especially since we've had mid-70 °F weather for most of January this year), this is our version of winter. Click to see our 2007 window. Also, if you're up for it, check out my virtual collection of snow and ice from other blogs posted to my companion blog.

This morning's sunrise was absolutely spectacular! The sky continually changed colors. These photos are not doctored or color corrected.

One of our first sunrise pics, because it was the first time we thought to take a picture of our morning marvels. It's pretty and shows our annual tradition of cutting paper snowflakes and sticking them on our window from Thanksgiving to at least Valentine's Day. Admittedly, the snowflakes usually come down around the first of March.
