Snow in Suburbia

This past Thursday's snowfall put us Virginians in about four inches of snow. It seems miniscule, but any amount of snow in the Washington area puts everyone into a frenzy and before you know it, the streets are covered in a good inch of salt and sand. 

I had a great time sledding as the snow was whipping around Thursday night. This was all possible thanks to wool socks, Bean Boots, and thick gloves. The snow was the heavy type of that makes sleds go fast and building snowmen possible. The snow has since disappeared and is replaced by the polar vortex to remind us that it is still winter (even though it's predicted to be 56 degrees on Sunday).

Winter Weather Advisory

Last year's first snow.

In honor of the first snow possibly happening tomorrow, here is the first step of my snow dance routine.

1. Look at pictures of snow.
2. Dance like a fool while listening to Christmas music.
3. Wear PJ's that are winter themed inside out.

Bean Boots

LL. Bean, C. Wonder, Cole Haan, Sperry Top-Sider

Bean Boots are the ultimate fall and winter shoe. Mine have the Gortex lining so they are warm enough for winter. They are also waterproof and perfect for snow and rain. The Sperry's are also great for rainy days. They are a classic shoe that go with almost everything.
