fragments of time: snow day….

While it is very uncommon for us to get snow here in Georgia, it is always something I get super excited about when we have even the slightest chance… Yesterday morning were supposed to get 5” according to the forecast but we only got around 2’… 
I was ready for the worst of it, planning on feeding the horses multiple times because they wouldn’t dare wear a blanket. Luckily, it was just enough to cover the farm with a nice blanket of snow - enough for Poptart to enjoy her first real snow, and it was cold enough that it stuck around all day. 
Both horses stayed out in it for most of the day - with their fluffy winter coats, they seemed to enjoy it…


…the goats are made for the snow - both are little alpine swiss mixes.

Poptart was thrilled with all the new textures and smells, and had zoomies like I rarely see her have! 
Reece loved sniffing out the field mice who were far more active, looking for food I’m guessing, to stay warm…


..one of many ferns in the forest who seem determined to make it through the winter…


I made a batch of biscuits to enjoy with my evening coffee…
..last night when I was coming back in from walking the dogs, I had to snap this… 
Poptart spent the rest of the evening cozied up in front of the wood stove…
while I would have loved for the snow to stick around a bit more, I was glad to see that the roads were clear for driving because in a bit I do need to make a grocery run. I recently learned a new little hack to use as a meal option for my darling little Poptart, so need to round up one ingredient…. stay tuned and I’ll share how much she likes it! 

stay warm and I am so glad to be back…
