Yet another lifetime first and therefore a Japan first. It rained snowballs today.

 

It was like a hailstorm. Without the storm or hail. More like fluffy hail. So bizarre and adorable. Proving yet again Japan is kawaii! 


A couple more pictures of my pansies to capture the experience. 


The best news though, is that my wedding rings finally are starting to fit again. After my second fall running, my hand was so swollen my wedding rings were very uncomfortable. Four months later, they almost fit comfortably. But seriously , check out the most kawaii snowball!! 


This will sound pathetic, but I hope this is the end of winter. First off, we have to run a marathon in two weeks and I don’t want to do that in snow. Secondly, after two years of Chicago fake springs, I’m super excited for bulbs, blossoms and blooms!
