Snowpacalypse!!


This is our front porch after about 30 mins. It is a covered porch too. :)


After an hour of snow!


The next morning.



Xavier going to get his runaway "sled", the cookie sheet.




Addie's first time sledding. She didn't like the big slope, so Xavier and I made her a smaller one. She LOVED it!! The next day the boys combined this one with the other one and made one super fast slope. It was so cool watching them all go down it.




Yes, we got snow in Georgia, not a little, but A LOT!!! It started late Sunday night and within an hour there was a good 3-4 inches on the ground. The next morning we had 6 inches and .5 of ice on top. That morning we got even more freezing rain, which made it pretty clear that there would be no school for Tuesday. On Tuesday we had some melting, but then it snowed again and some freezing rain, so no school for Wednesday either. I guess it is a good thing that I got 2 gallons of milk on Friday. :)

The kids have really enjoyed all the snow and playing in it. Xavier and the neighborhood boys have been sledding all over the place. We were unable to find real sleds, so my kids have been using a large cookie sheet. It works fantastic!!

Monday was also Addison's 3rd birthday. She was very happy to see all the beautiful snow. It snowed on Christmas day and so she thought it was Christmas all over again. LOL!
We celebrated with some friends the night before and she will have her party on the 16th. I will post birthday stuff after her official party. She also has function at school, whenever we finally go back. :)
