1. Our snow yesterday ended up being more than they called for. It was hard to measure, but ended up being around 8" or so. It makes headaches, but it sure is pretty! Jim spent most of yesterday on that tractor, opening the driveway...and opening it again...
2. Next week we're to be in the 40's all week, so we expect lots of melting, and mud.
3. We took Murphy to be bred last week, so hopefully we'll have a litter of sweet puppies around the beginning of May! This would only be her second litter. Last summer was a disappointment in that department, but we're hopeful this time around will have a happier ending...
4. Six of Jenna's violin teacher's students participate in the Lancaster Youth Symphony Orchestra, and last Saturday was their winter concert. They missed a handful of practices because of bad weather, but they were able to pull it together. This is just a short clip of one of the songs. It was just recorded on my camera, so the quality is less than stellar, but the real thing was a treat to listen to...
5. Here's to spring in the not too distant future, and lots of playing in the grass and lazing in the sunshine...
Enjoy your weekend!
A beautiful snow scene. We are expecting some warmer temperatures this coming week, not high enough for a melt though. The Youth Orchestra sound great!
ReplyDeleteWishing you luck in the puppy department! Thanks for joining in Alica. xo
ReplyDeleteWe received about the same amount of snow. Pretty, but I am ready for the melt! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeletemurphy is a cutie..hope the breeding went well! we didn't get as much snow as you but yes, it is beautiful!
ReplyDeletePuppies, kitties, an impressive Youth Symphony Orchestra and spring in the very near future. Who could ask for better? Okay maybe a little less snow. But it will melt. Someday. It always has before.
ReplyDeleteoh, sweet murphy. and sweet kitty! loved the concert, too!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful snow photo! We'd love to have some of that here on the West Coast! Visiting from Random 5 Friday~
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, HERE'S TO SPRING.
ReplyDeleteOh I do hope Murphy gives you puppies soon. She's a cutie and so was that darling kitten. - I don't envy those with all that snow and having to shovel it. I do hope your warm weather arrives and you enjoy a nice start to spring.
ReplyDeleteHope all goes well with Murphy. Cute kitty! The snow is pretty. I like looking at it, but I know I wouldn't enjoy living with it! Stay warm and Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteSorry I was reading and got stuck on the words melting and mud. I need spring and warmth now. Hugs B
ReplyDeleteOh, puppies! What could be more delightful than that!
ReplyDeleteSometimes it is all we can do to the the farm driveways open, so much blowing and drifting on top of the snow.
ReplyDeleteSuch talented musicians, thanks for sharing the video!
we just had rain this time, no snow so we are already enjoying the mud. That sounds like a fabulous concert. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteThe warmer temperatures will be a treat but lets hope the sow doesn't melt too fast causing flooding! The kitten is so cute! The concert must have been fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI do hope it is warmer next week, but the mud. It does look beautiful like a story book.
ReplyDeleteI do hope you get some puppies. Nothing better. I hope you have a wonderful week.
The snow does look pretty. Good luck with the puppies. I so wish Ella could have a litter, but we had to spay her for medical reasons. Stay warm.
ReplyDeleteAlicia,
ReplyDeleteHope you get the sunshine and warm temps you are looking for.
We are enjoying some beautiful weather. It makes chores and calving a lot more fun.
Looks like quite the storm. Hope you get puppies this time. I am certainly looking forward to spring too.
