Crazy Winter in Alabama

We are not used to seeing that beautiful white stuff that falls from the sky when it's really cold...you know the stuff called...SNOW!!! 

This winter has been different though; we have already gotten to experience two rounds of snow. 

The first round was predicted to be more of a dusting that would not stick, but when it started coming down it stuck very fast. This quickly became a disaster in the Birmingham Metro area and tons of people were stranded on roads, in schools and at their jobs. Thankfully, to my hubby and his 4x4 truck we were all able to be home together and enjoy the snow.

 " What is all of this white stuff in our yard?"

First steps in the snow

 A little confused :)

 This is so much fun!!!

He decided to check out his slide. He did not understand why this snow was on his slide

He thought it was so funny to wipe the snow of the slide :)

Snow January 2014

Then again this past week we got to experience snow Round 2. This was a much more pleasant snow event. Everyone had a good advance warning that the snow was coming. Schools and businesses closed early and everyone seemed prepared for the event. The snow did not begin until after dark, so we woke up the next morning to play before it all melted away.

 Good Morning!

Thank you Lord for your beautiful creation. This winter has been a wonderful reminder of just how AMAZING you are!
