Winter finally came to Älmhult this weekend. We had about 7 inches of snow. This is the most snow we have had all winter. Mostly we get just a bit to cover the grass for a few hours before it melts.
The snow came down on Saturday afternoon in big, fluffy flakes. We had already ran out and did a couple of errands and then we were back home in time to watch from our big windows the snow falling gently down on the trees and grass. We had a nice fire in the fireplace and watched a movie in the afternoon (Feed the Fish) and then we went out to shovel before dinner, we had 4 inches by about 5:00 pm and then we had dinner and watched another movie (The Joneses). What a very nice day!
Yesterday, we got up and shoveled the rest of the snow and then took a walk into town. Here are some pictures from yesterday some are in the morning before the sun came out, then some with the sun. You will get a nice idea of the beauty.

Well, now I have to run (really bike) to my Swedish lesson.
I hope you all have a wonderful day and I am gathering more items to post to make you all smile. :)
Love,
Bridgette
