Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland

So as you can see...we got SNOW!! (yet again). But this time it really snowed!! Last time we didnt even get an inch, this time there is like 6 inches!!! (or around that) As all y'all may know, we get really excited about the snow, growing up in South Carolina, we never saw snow. But last night a big winter storm came through and this is what we saw!! (Warning-lots of pictures). Church was canceled and so we took advantage of the morning and went and played in it. Cooper the dog and Addison absolutely LOVED it! Addison was bawling when we made her come back in the house. It was a crazy mess...we went to Wal-Mart last night and on our way home we, first, helped this guy push his car out of a ditch b/c he got stuck and then we were sliding EVERY WHERE. The little mazda barely made it home. We had to shovel our way into the garage b/c we couldnt even make up onto the driveway into the garage b/c we were sliding everywhere...I told Mike that if we had an SUV we wouldnt have this problem sliding all over the snow as badly (haha I am working on him to get a bigger a car). I was shocked to see that this part of Tennessee doesnt really handle the snow very well. I dont think we saw one snowplow, the roads were awful! All in all, as much as I was ready for Spring to be here, it was a lot of fun to get to see the snow and play in it and eat it of course!!! We made rootbeer slushes with the snow this morning...mmmmmm

Mike in the snow...he loves it! He acts like a big kid. Its so funny to see.

Our house last night while it was snowing.

The roads last night....awful!!

I took a picture of me standing in the snow to show you how deep it was...and it was still coming down!!


Me and Addie in the snow Sunday morning.

Blaine was hoping for snow here so that he didn't have to go to work. We got a few flurries but nothing that stuck, but we still had cold weather.

Haha that is amazing. You can keep all of that snow down South! I certainly don't want it up here :)
