HGTV Bragging Rights

Yesterday on facebook I submitted a photo to HGTV's page for a contest they were holding called "Snow day". They wanted to see your best snow day photos. I uploaded this photo of my nephew during a snowstorm in Connecticut recently, keeping his eye on his Mr. Frosty that his Gramps built him.

Imagine my surprise when HGTV picked

my photo as the winner!

My photo was picked out of hundreds of submissions and I was thrilled! There is no official "prize" but HGTV Bragging Rights is all I need! Now if I could just have them come knocking on my door that I won the HGTV Dream Home in Stowe, Vermont........

Oh..the silent majesty of a winter's morn.......

I couldn't resist posting a picture of my husband in his favorite Christmas gift. Nevermind the expensive Hugo Boss winter coat I got him - he was secretly more thrilled with his new Griswold Blackhawks jersey! We couldn't resist snapping the obligatory photo of him staring out the window at my parents house. Christmas Vacation will always be a classic in our house!

Winter Wonderland

Last weekend Connecticut got hit by a snowstorm (one of many!) and I was up visiting for the night. I convinced my sister to have my nephew sleep over for a little snowy slumber.....

Cooper staring at "Mr. Frosty" that his Gramps built for him...

Finally going outside to visit him!

Beautiful sky the next morning after the snow had finished....
