The best day ever.

I love snow. Like, really, really, really love snow. I crossed my fingers and did a serious snow dance when they started calling for it in Georgia today. We live northwest of Atlanta and we were originally at the tippy top of the forecast. I held out hope that we would get a miracle and see some snow in our yard! This is one time I was happy that the weather man was wrong.

It started snowing at our house before 10:00 this morning and didn't stop until about 4:00. We had a solid inch on the ground before the news had even caught up with our area. I'd say we have somewhere in the area of 3 inches. The ground is totally covered and we have already been outside to play!

My husband was supposed to go in to work tonight but he had to call out because there is no way he could make it in. There's a very steep hill at the entrance of our subdivision and it is literally impassable. There's a pileup of cars that tried to make it up the hill and didn't succeed. Some sweet men in our neighborhood have been using their four wheelers to shuttle folks to their houses for hours now. The roads are awful and I'm definitely praying for everyone who is still out there - especially those working to keep us safe and warm.

Now we are just sitting by the fire (which is newly working thanks to my awesome hubby), having some chili, and watching a movie. I love snow days!

  2. Your husband is willing to be in so many pictures with you! And smiles and allows you take pictures of just him! What's the secret? :)

    1. I've worn him down over the past ten years! It's a constant thing so he just got used to it. Haha! He's one of the happiest people I know so most of the time I just snap before even saying anything!
