The first snow seemed to arrive early this year. We found a little at Ross Farm in mid-November and then enough fell in Mahone Bay on November 27 to make some straggly snowmen. (Exactly one month before the first snowfall of 2015.)

Ross Farm

November 27
The first real snowstorm blew in on Monday December 12. Surprisingly school wasn’t cancelled but they did finish 3 hours early. There were only 5 in Milo’s class and 7 in Evie’s so most families stayed home. (There was talk of a bus in a ditch somewhere.)
We walked home through the woods enjoying the silence that comes with the snow.
