Snow Day in January!!

I know that the Northerners laugh at us Southerners for getting so excited about a little bit of snow, but we rarely see snow down here!! My kids were happy to wake up Thursday morning to see the snow falling. The best part about it snowing was that Michael got a snow day at work!! So, we all bundled up and headed out to play!! Whitten kept screaming "snow, snow" and wanted to pick it up. Vaiden was excited too and was ready to go sledding down the hills. Whitten loved the sled too, but he finally got brave and told his Daddy he wanted to go all by himself!! He is such a big boy!! It snowed several times during the day and the snow is still on the ground now because the weather is so cold. Although it's no longer snow it's frozen snow!! All in all, we got about a 1/2 to 1" of snow and for us Southerners....that's something to be really excited about!!
