|
Imagine my surprise when I walked around the house and found this "growing" in the snow on the south side of the house. It is of course a silk flower that had blown off the Christmas tree on the front porch. How it landed so it looked like it was growing from the snow I'll never know.

It landed there just to give you a surprise and a smile on a snowy day. It looks pretty amidst the untouched snow.

Very pretty, even if it is a silk flower. The snow is gorgeous, I would love to make a snowman.
