I started out the month of April in North Carolina and was thrilled with a beautiful spring. I took pictures like these in our yard and our neighbor's yard a day or two after the first day of spring...
 |
| Our house is in the background and is the view from my bedroom! |
 |
| It was even warm enough to dig out some shorts! |
but then I came to Saskatchewan and apparently travelled back in time to the middle of winter. We woke up this morning to this...
 |
| We knew it was snowing but we didn't know how much because we couldn't even see through most of the windows! |
 |
| All the snow was gone when we got here about a week ago. This is all fresh snow!! |
 |
| I am thinking it will be at least a couple days before I can drive my van! |
 |
| This is at least a 4 foot drift! |
 |
| maybe I should have packed more than raincoats and rubber boots? |
 |
and I had to exchange my flipflops for Papa's snowboots!
We were all dressed up and ready to go out into the snow storm... |
 |
We were not out very long, it took us longer to get dressed than we were outside.
They were not impressed with being out in a snow storm! |
Oh and yes, I did check the calendar and it is in fact April 30. So nope, not time travel just a reminder that anything can happen with the weather in Saskatchewan! And yep I am really missing North Carolina right about now...

Carrie,
Wonderful pictures. And, really, what trip to Saskatchewan would be complete without a blizzard? Sorry the weather didn't cooperate on your visit.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment at Then Life Happens... It is appreciated.
Still missing you from a now WARM Saskatchewan ;)

I forgot to mention... regarding your Dad, my thoughts and prayers with you and yours.
