Woke up to 2" of snow -- Wed., Feb. 15, 2012

Sparks, NV:

It's pretty, oh so pretty! 

Two inches of snow in the city.

4" to 5" icicles were hanging off our 5er as well. The daytime temperature got up to about 38 degrees so most of it melted. However, as the sun was going down, the temperature dipped giving us an interesting ice formation on our outdoor thermometer.

From the outside

And, of course, the requisite kitty pics...

How do you like them apples?

4. They are independent
5. They are total loves
6. Their playfulness provides lots of entertainment
7. They are mischievous
8. They are curious
9. They are enthusiastic
10. They make our house a home
11. Nice to have other living beings around
12. We've had cats our whole lives and life doesn't seem complete without them
13. They're good hunters
