Snowy Days Down South

In case you hadn't heard, [yeah right] it snowed down here last week!

I know, you're totally shocked.

Although, the city completely shut down and poor people were stranded for 24 hours in their cars, gas stations and fast food chains, it was enjoyable for those cozy in their homes and out of work.

Luckily, last Tuesday, I was able to leave school and head home with no problems. Cody was one of those stuck in Atlanta on 285 for awhile. Somehow, he managed to escape the madness and made it home in a whopping five hours. [a normal one hour commute.]

Once he finally made it home, we enjoyed some time in the freshly fallen snow. Cody whipped out a sled that I didn't even know we had. We slid down our hill a few times, including running into a few trees. And then we made a big pot of chilli and relaxed on the couch. It was a rare treat for these southerners. :)

 

Since the roads were covered with an inch of ice, school was of course cancelled the next two days. Which meant no work for me. Normal people stayed inside their warm cozy houses or made snowmen in their front yard, but we aren't normal.

Cody yearned for danger apparently. Because he worked his Jeep up our ice covered hill and we hit the road to visit friends and cause some trouble. I guess I'm attracted to the rebels. :)

 

And then like any crazy dog mom, I had to snap a few more pictures of Maci before the snow completely melted away. By day #3 she learned to love it. She definitely was a little snow bunny by then.

 We had so much fun playing in the snow, and having two days off was unexpectedly nice. But now that we got some snow out of the way, this girl has some major spring fever!

Bring on 65 degrees and sunny.
