Jack Frost

The first few mornings this week, we have woken up to everything being covered in frost. The frost is so thick, that it looks like fresh snow on the trees.

Monday morning, we drove down to Mapleton for breakfast at Tony's restaurant. I was completely mesmerized by the beauty of all the trees, but I was so bummed because I didn't have my camera with me. By the time we got home it had warmed up enough that the frost had melted off most of the trees.

Lucky for me, the trees were all frosted again the next morning, so I bundled up and went out to take some pictures. Jon told me that he never could understand why people would want to have their Christmas tree flocked, but after seeing the trees naturally flocked with frost, he's decided it's quite beautiful. I don't think we'll ever have a flocked Christmas tree, but it is beautiful.

All of these pictures were taken outside our house. What a beautiful view, don't you think? I thought I would post some of the pictures, so you could enjoy them too. Just a few more shots of our Winter Wonderland. I apologize that the pictures are so gray, but it was a little foggy when I took the pictures.
