first snowfall

On the 27th of October we had our first snowfall in Minot!!!  Areas around us had gotten snow earlier but this was the first for Minot.  We got about six inches and, of course, Matt was on alert.  (We have a joke that he is always on alert when it snows enough to shovel.)  The snow looked beautiful covering the flowers but looked odd on all the Halloween pumpkins.

The dogs weren't sure what to do with the snow.  Oscar didn't mind being outside but didn't really want to go through it.  Lola, however, loved playing in it.  She jumped into piles, fought with my hand when I was holding it, and tried eating it.  She really didn't like when it was falling...she ran around the yard, nose in the air barking at the snow falling.  I guess that would be confusing for a little dog.
