Snow day

The meteorologists predicted snow for today...but you never can believe them especially since we had some spring like days last week! Weather channel.com predicted it would start snowing about 2 AM. Since I live in Alabama and rarely see snow, I got up several times in the night to check, but saw nothing but a dusting. When I got up at 6 AM to check, it was snowing hard! I was like a kid at Christmas. I got my clothes on and went to get Daphne and Ben out of the bed so we could play. I didn't know how long the hard snow would last, and I wanted to see Ben experience his first snow! I must say, we had a blast.

Me with the first snowman of the day. I didn't know we would get 3 inches...this was the snowman in about 1 inch!

Look how deep the snow is!


I enjoyed the snow day, but I also enjoy the fact that I live in Alabama, and by 3:00 PM today, most of the snow had melted. I'm glad I don't have to deal with 3 or more inches of snow daily, but it sure was fun for the day!
