The Snowman That Arrived Before The Snow!

Still busy painting my bathroom yesterday, when suddenly, the doorbell rang.  A package arrived, and out of that package came a snowman!!  An adorable, smiling snowman carrying white flowers. 

 An unexpected, and much needed surprise from my baby sister in sunny California.  It's funny that my snowman arrived before the huge snowstorm sweeping throughout the Midwest.  This is what it looked like outside when the happy snowman arrived.

See---no snow---not yet, that is.

 Today, it's another story.  The snow is moving into the region.  Soon, we'll have a snowman in the front yard, but it won't have flowers!

The view out of the front window today as the snow is making its way across the state.
