(three of mine + 1 cousin - they actually have 13 1/2 cousins - but this is to encourage/remind/convince me that sunny days really are coming - even if I can't see them through the frigid snow right now! Brrrrr.)
(We got a lot of snow this past week - this photo was taken a little farther up the mountain near the Kirkwood ski area. They got almost 10 feet in 1 week - we only got about 2!)
