Blossoms in the blizzard

I woke up this morning to a fresh blanket of snow!


Do you know what I loved most about it?


These blossoms.


They didn't wait to bloom until they were sure the sunshine was here to stay. They came out anyway- and they are beautiful- even when covered in a blanket of snow they didn't expect.

Wow. That's incredible. We had a similar snow fall. 10cm in one day and it was 10 degrees later that day. (I'm talking Canadian - sorry). We haven't had blossoms yet, but it was the pretty snow...not the dirty muddy stuff. So that's nice.

That snow must have been quite a surprise. Very pretty on your tree which has blossomed. Good thing is, the snow won't last. Just one more heavenly blanket.

What georgeous picture April. I love that you can enjoy the beauty today and that tomorrow it will be gone because it's spring. The best of two amazing worlds.
