Be Careful!

Friendly Reminder . . . 
Be Careful What you Wish For!

We were wishing the rain would stop!
Oh yes, it finally stopped and then --
SNOW!!


Really!
On Sunday, October 14, 2018,
we received 6-7 inches of snow!
Soooooo crazy!
And so wet and heavy - goodbye flowers and plants!

Poor trees in our neighborhood that had
barely started to turn color
were hammered!
All those leaves covered in heavy snow and ice 
led to lots of branches going down!
You could hear tree branches cracking!
Some areas looked like a war zone.
Mr. Tennis went out and knocked the heavy
snow off one of our favorite smallish trees.
It bounced right back up -- YAY for our little tree.

The sun came out and finally after a day or
two of dealing with slushy messes and
the snow melted away!
Praying it stays away until approximately
December 20 - the day before M's bday as
she always wants snow on her birthday.

I still can't believe that happened- I'm with you-snow can come in December, but not before... well, maybe a few days before. :) But it sure does make for pretty pictures. :)
