Mundane Beauty: Version 2.0

Living in Oregon can be a little different than living anywhere else--we have snow here almost all winter, but it's up in the hills, not often on the valley floor. It's easily accessible almost any time you'd like to see it, but also doesn't often intersect with everyday life.

But last week, it snowed. Just a little, but more than I think it's ever snowed in this particular city since we moved here in 2008. We'd taken Lizzy up to the snow just before she turned one, but this was probably the first snow that she remembers.
