More Snow!

On Friday, February 12, 2010, we got some of the best snow that Georgia has seen in a while.  Marshall had the day off, Payton had a half day, and my school closed an hour early (I could leave at 1:30), so right about the time it really started snowing, we were all home playing!  It was an awesome snow...fluffy and soft.  It snowed hard all Friday afternoon and was beautiful as it came down.  We played. 



I love the snowflakes in Payton's hair. 


Marshall vs. the neighborhood kids in a snowball fight
(see our dog on the right...she kept trying to catch the snowballs in her mouth)



While the snow fell, the kids built a snowman


Odell's tree was so cool because the snow stuck to every branch.

In fact, the snow stuck to lots of things...

And it just kept getting deeper and deeper and it countinued to snow all afternoon.



Oh, and did I mention that we had a few snowball fights?  Here is Payton's ammunition.


Here's Eli's ammunition



After dark we took a walk in the neighborhood.  This tree looked magical. 


The next morning we walked to Mountain Park



Have you ever seen snow on the SIDE of all the trees??? 


The kids tried to climb up this hill for probably 10 minutes and they just kept sliding down.  It was so funny.  The loved it!


We are so thankful for the snow that we got to enjoy and play in.
