Winter Wonderland...Deep South Edition

So, we have grown pretty accustomed to hearing the forcast of snow for our area and either seeing nothing...or ice{which is no fun to play in...we know becuase we tried!}

This time, when they started talking the "S" word {snow} we did not get excited or even think twice. It started raining at our place around 5:45 on Wednesday night. It rained for about 2 hours before we spotted the first flakes of snow. Even then we were sceptical of accumiations. But then it started snowing hard and conituned for a few hours. We were excited to have a "fun" snow that got us a delay for school starting but was not dangerous and brought LOTS of joy to our house!

We did wake up early in the am for fear that the snow would be gone with the daylight. The kids were happy to rise early to go out and play. We played for a few hours before going in to get ready for school. Here are a few of our pics.
