Everything shut down yesterday as we eagerly awaited the snow that didn't come and didn't come (so glad I didn't tell the girls we were going to get snow). FINALLY about 8:30 last night it started snowing and it accumulated fast. It snowed until about 1am and this morning we had 2.5in at our house! Last night we got the girls out of bed to show them the snow when it started and I wish I had recorded their reaction...they were so excited and Emmie immediately began making plans to build a snowman.
We had fun playing out in the snow this morning. Emmie had a BLAST and Ellie thought it was ok but quite chilly...she is definitely not as cold tolerant as Emmie. Ruthie even got to come outside and she was not super impressed but was content to hang out in her bear suit. Franklin had a BLAST and loved chasing the snowballs we threw. We did manage to make a snowman although he's really more of a snowblob. Our snow is really powdery and dry so we had to work hard to make it stick together!

| The girls LOVED eating the snow! |

| Paul and Ruthie think it's never too cold to lay in a hammock. |

| I love this picture of Paul, Emmie, and Ellie discussing how to fix up the snowman. |
 |
| We had to improvise with the face and hat. Only in the south do you use a beach toy as a snowman hat! |
