Those look like spring 'chicks'.

These are the winter 'chicks'

There was a bit of hail around that time in Burnaby, but it didn't last long.

I'm OK with winter being around the corner.  I can relax now that I'm done all my shopping  [img onmouseover="this.style.backgroundColor='#C6D3EF';this.style.border='1px solid #3169C6'; " style="BORDER-RIGHT: #3169c6 1px solid; BORDER-TOP: #3169c6 1px solid; BORDER-LEFT: #3169c6 1px solid; CURSOR: pointer; BORDER-BOTTOM: #3169c6 1px solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #c6d3ef" onclick="InsertImage('/forums/richedit/smileys/Teasing/12.gif');" onmouseout="this.style.backgroundColor=''; this.style.border=''" src="http://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Teasing/12.gif" align=absMiddle]

I love snow too - and I don't mind winter too much either as I always see it as the gateway to spring.

YES!

I finished my shopping on Remembrance Day weekend. I hate shopping, especially the busy shopping season, so I thought I'd beat it this year!(http://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Teasing/3.gif)

you could go outside maybe in the backyard jr. should have fun in the snow. My dad used to make snow men and women when I was around 2 to 4 then my sister was born and its been all down hill since.    
Title: Re: Winter round the corner
Post by: Lise on Nov 25 06 07:15
Yep, she should have a lot of fun. I'll have to watch her though.... it's gonna be a minefield of doggy poo since our dog uses the lawn as his own personal toilet bowl. Heck, if I see a brown snowman, it's going to spell trouble!!

LOL mind field in deed.  The dog will go where did my spot go? lol.  Speaking of poop I kept stepping in it when I was moving in my cousin today into our house lol dumb animals always have to poop where people walk.

What kind of dog do you have? Whats his or her name?
 
Title: Re: Winter round the corner
Post by: Lise on Nov 25 06 07:32
He's a small fluffy dog. I won't say his name in case he bounces here and starts to bark like the neurotic dog that he is.

I dunno I was being politically correct although snow women would have some kind of hair while dudes are bald with hats.
