And here’s what my patio looked like Sunday morning:

The blizzard dropped snow for over a day

As if making up for a mild December and January, Mother Nature quickly piled on the powder to kick off February. I couldn’t wait to introduce my little force of nature to her first blizzard. Penny liked her first taste of snow so it was no surprise she dove head first into the blizzard.

The pups and the snow swirled around me

My wildchild Penny couldn’t get enough of barreling through the snow drifts
