Uh...we're not in Jackson anymore...

Lots of snow....
Will couldn't wait to go outside....
I love the snow...
Mommy and Will in the snow....
His hands were like icicles when he came inside...oh yeah, he cried when he had to come inside.
Sweet boy...
Will and daddy...

So we are in the middle of a nice little winter storm. Michael, Will and I went out this morning around 10. I had to go the bead shop and Michael had a gift he needed to get at a sports store. So I drop him off there and head to the bead shop. I go back to meet him, we look around in the store, then go to check out and it is as white as it can be outside! You know in the south how when it does snow or flurry a little it melts as soon as it hits the ground? Well not here, it accumulates immediately. Of course I was the only fascinated one in the store. Everyone else is like whatever, it's just snow. Yes, I am one of those people that watch the weather and then goes to the store to buy bread and milk at the store. Will LOVED the snow too. Michael took him outside to the car and he went crazy flapping his arms and squealing. I would say we have a few inches on the ground right now - enough to where you don't see grass sprouting through the snow! We are expecting more tomorrow! I love it (as long as the roads are clear:). Here are a few pictures from the day!

Great snow pictures! Kids always seem to love the snow - I guess it just fascinates them. He looks so cute in his toggle coat, and so big boy looking out the window.

That reminds me of my childhood in Ohio! We're heading home to the central Ohio area next week and I'm hoping that the snow will still be there so that Brax can experience a white "Christmas." I love Will's coat. So cute!!

Oh wow! When is the last time we even saw a flurry in Georgia? How fun at Christmas time, but I'm afraid I would tire of it after about a week. You guys are going to have to buy some serious winter wear this year. Will looks SO BIG looking out the window. I too LOVE his coat. That is the cutest!

Jennifer said...

Oh, how fun! I would love to have some snow here, as long as it melts in a few hours so we can still get out and about!!

Mandy said...

What fun!! We had a chance of snow...but it didn't happen. Glad you had fun in the snow and glad Will loved it!!! The coat is precious - is that Janie and Jack? I think my mom got one similar for Ethan - so cute!!! I love coats!

Ryan and Michelle said...

Oh, okay...Duh! I don't know why I thought that ya'll were now there. I guess I thought that you all had moved. Maybe you did....just not to Atlanta. Geez, guess I'm really out of touch...sorry. :-)

Sarah said...

Okay CK, I must be the only person NOT jealous of your snow! I miss the beauty of it, but I DO NOT miss the wind and crazy amounts of snow up there! I am thrilled for you and your first Yankee winter. Enjoy! I remember my first Christmas up there. We were supposed to come back to TN that year and I was so excited. We ended up getting so much snow that it was illegal to be out on the roads unless it was an emergency. What a wake-up call! Will is so handsome by the way!

Oh my goodness. I can't believe all the snow. So much fun....at least for a little while. You are definitely not in Jackson. It is 80 degrees! Will is precious in the snow. Looks like he had a blast - he will be building a snowman before you know it.

That's so fun that Will loved playing in the snow. The pictures are really pretty. I'm sure that makes it feel more like Christmas. Sorry I've been so out of the loop...I don't know where the past few weeks have gone. The picture of Will in the "What Time Is It" post is so adorable. Merry Christmas to you all! Love!
