A new view, lingering autumn colors & here comes more snow!

Our autumn colors are slowly coming to an end. The winter storm coming in tonight will probably speed that process up even more. 2-6" of snow here on the valley floors and more in the mountains expected along with gusty winds.

I went for a quick drive today up to Ogden Valley to take some pictures before the snow hits.

Lazily enjoying a late autumn day......


Looking across Pineview Reservoir towards Eden and Huntsville......the clouds are so pretty

These stunning leaves were on the ground at Huntsville Park......




We decided to put new windows in the main level of the house this fall. The old ones are aluminum from probably the 70's and have so much moisture between the panes you were stuck with a cloudy view when looking out.

Our neighbor and his brother are putting the new ones in for us and wow! what a difference! The new windows are white vinyl. I made 2 decisions concerning these windows that I'm extra happy about and DJ was ok with.
My parents said when they put new windows in they wish they would have put a window in the bathroom that opens from the top or bottom. So we got privacy glass in the bathroom and it opens from either the top or bottom. It's nice to have it cracked open from the top and maintain privacy.


I love, love, love the new LR windows. I wanted to have an unobstructed view so there's a 12" slider at the bottom of each window and the rest is all one piece!



This house has so much potential and new windows is one more step to making it beautiful :) Next summer we hope to put new siding on ( & NO!! it won't be blue. No offense. Blue is nice and all but.........)

Ben and I got more yard work done after school and we are ready for the snow!

I wouldn't be surprised if there were snow pictures on here tomorrow :) For now here's a few more autumn pictures I took at a pond here in town last week.....
