Welcome to Vermont!

Some girls on my mommy board were talking the other day about some snow they were getting in TX. Snow is so rare in TX and it got me to thinking how cool it is that we live in a country where some people have never seen snow in their lives, where others have snow for half the year. Some people experience earth quakes and hurricanes, where others only read about them in the newspaper. Some people live in the desert, where others live within the comforts of the green mountains.

So I thought I would show you what a typical Vermont winter looks like. I would love to see where you live - if you want to join me in this little project, leave a comment so I can check out your state!

Vermont is...snowpants, sweaters, mittens, wool socks and boots...

Vermont is...shovels, snowblowers and sleds

Vermont is...looking out your front window and seeing this...

and looking out your back window to see this...

Vermont is...having snow up to (and sometimes above!) your mailbox

Vermont is...stacks and stacks of wood for a wood fire...

Vermont is...building snowmen with your daddy

and snow forts with your mommy...

Vermont is...seeing baby mittens around your house...

Vermont is...laying in the snowbank and taking pictures of pure joy...

Vermont is...going sledding with your best friend...


and eating snow together in your fort


Vermont is...pink snowsuits, pink hats and huge smiles


Vermont is...running around with your mouth wide open trying to catch the snow


Vermont is...coming into your warm home with homemade chocolate chip cookies and hot cocoa waiting for you...
