Season's First Snow

I said before that this Winter has been very mild, but it's turning colder and colder as time goes by. On December 9, snow was falling all day long, sometimes heavy and sometimes just flurries! We had only 3 inches of snow on the ground at the end.

These are cornflowers, we did not clean them up yet. It looks like road side IKEBANA

The five Magnolia trees look like X'mas tree. Beautiful !
