    We received 4 inches of snow last night and more expected tonight. I have come to the realization that the whole concept of colored easter eggs started in Montana so they could be found by the kids.

    We had snow falling yesterday that looked like puffed marshmallows coming straight down. So very strange. It did accumulate on the car windows and in the grass for a few hours, then melted. Thank the Good Lord!! I am so sick of this cold weather. My grass needs mowing, for heaven's sake! I will not mow in the snow!

    We are well on our way to 8-9 inches of snow. It is reeking havoc on my daffodils.

    We have some hefty thunderstorms heading our way tonight. I do not sleep well anymore when they put up a watch for any type of storms after being hit by that tornado last June.
