New Years Eve and the crazy snow

We had a very low key New Years Eve at the house this year. It was fun to ring in the New Year with Andrew. It's only the second time he's been stateside with me for New Years! We had an eventful evening of Wii games, sparkling wine, and munchies.

Today when we looked outside there was crazy snow! It's still snowing outside right now. The snow was up to the first step out our back door earlier, I'm sure it's even higher now. It was up over the top of my snow boots *burr* That means it's got to be a little over a foot.

Tango is loving to play in the snow. We throw the ball for her and she watches where it lands then digs it out.
Sometimes we have to find it for her because instead of digging it out she buries it. oops.

Who knew that our little TX doggie would be such a snow lover.

Niagara Falls

On our way home from Louisiana we stopped in Niagara Falls. It was definitely beautiful and fun, but it was freaking cold so we didn't stay long.We're hoping to get to go back in the spring/summer. I would love to be able to explore some more. Most of the paths were closed off because of the ice and those that weren't closed off were covered in ice and terrible to walk on. Tango in the hotel room the night before we saw the falls. We got into Niagara around 3 am and slept until check out at 11am.

The first set of falls. They were so pretty. Tango was terrified though.

Look at how scared poor Tango is. She warmed up to them soon enough though

Tango and I both look unamused. It was freaking cold.

The first falls from the other side.

The horeshoe falls. Tango had warmed up to them. I think because we weren't up on a bridge to see these.
Niagara Falls!
