Snowy Cities and Orange Blossoms

Spring break turned into winter break this year as we got our first official snow day at NAU the day after Spring break was supposed to end.  No complaining here!  We drove back up on Monday and played in the three feet of snow.  It was SO fun!

                

*Please Note: Anyone who says it doesn't snow in Arizona is very mistaken!  Flagstaff, Arizona was named 8th Snowiest City this year making it in the Top 10 Snowiest Cities for 5 years straight!  Yeah, that's a lot a snow... the difference? - It is also sunny here so it melts, FAST!  That 3 feet of snow we tromped in was gone in 48 hours flat!

Yet, I spent all Spring break taking in all the orange blossoms I could because it is definitely spring in the valley!  I have had the best of all worlds this month.  Snow, orange blossoms, sunny days, wet pines, etc.  I seriously LOVE this time of year!  The tiny chirping birds, and flowers, and yummy smells, and sunshine!  I love spring SO much!

It truly does remind me of Easter and the sacred New Beginning that makes all other new beginnings possible!  I am so thankful for my Savior and His sacrifice for me!  Happy Spring!
