first snow

We haven't seen snow here for at least 3 years so we were so excited last night! This was the first snow for both of the kids. Zander went outside to play in it as it fell down.

We are probably the only people that grill when it is snowing. Here in Georgia, people wear scarves & earmuffs if it gets as cold as 50 degrees outside. But Matt didn't mind and the chicken was Yummy!!! We decided that will be our family tradition, always grill when it snows.

The master griller.....no kind of weather can stop him!

It accumulated at least an inch and was so pretty in the dark after it had fallen down. We all enjoyed watching it....

I had such great dreams for us today.....we were going to play outside, come in and drink hot chocolate, and enjoy the winter day! When I got up this morning----it was mostly gone. The rain overnight washed most of it away. Oh well, we had a fun day anyway. We went shopping with Grandma, had a delicious lunch at Moe's, and had hot chocolate for an afternoon snack. We'll keep wishing for more snow..........

Oh, I'm so glad Zander and Kaya got to see snow! Wish we could have been there to share it with you instead of here, where it snowed all day and got so cold that my car doors were frozen shut after school! Ben says he'll challenge Matt for the title of master griller though, for the time he grilled for Katie's birthday party in a blizzard. :) Miss you all and hope you have a wonderful, hot chocolate filled day!!!Love, Sue

I am feeling better mentally......partly thanks to seeing wonderful comments from all of you. Physically, sometimes I feel good & sometimes I don't. It shall pass......

Thanks to all of you for making my day!
