Well, everyone and their mamas here in the south was all up in arms about the coming freeze. We have one every year, but this year, we were also expecting snow. Everyone was excited, of course, because that means No School -- even for us grown-ups.
One evening in January, snow began to fall. The next morning, we woke up to a winter wonderland. It was very special because we were the first ones up in our neighborhood, which meant the snow was untouched and beautiful.
We took this opportunity to bring out our snow toys. We have had those hidden in a closet for some time. At the end of this post, is a video compilation I made so be sure to watch it :)
We had a blast in the snow for a little bit. Neighbors later joined in the powder. The birds were happy to have some seed in the backyard. Their lovely red colors so bright against that white. But, it wasn't long before the temperatures rose and melted everything off. Meanwhile, we had two glorious days off from school just being lazy potatoes around the house!
