Mississippi Snowstorm 2014

Today we had no school due to the gobs and gobs of winter weather present here in Mississippi....  HA.  Poor Josh woke up really early and left for work at like 6:15 a.m. because he figured it would take a while to get there.  When he pulled up at his office, his boss called and said they were closing today.  So he made the trip back home, going on side roads to avoid the standstill traffic on the interstate.

Oh well, I guess 6 snowflakes is better than no snowflakes...  (Just kidding...we had more than 6, but I am sure Jenny, Eric, and PawPaw will be laughing at these pictures of all of our snow!!!) 

We stayed inside all morning and just watched it, hoping that we would get at least enough to cover the grass and have a decent amount to play in.  After lunch, Josh decided from watching the radar that we probably had all we were going to get.  So we went out to play for a bit.  It was COLD!  This Mississippi girl lives down south for a reason...  I HATE to be cold!  So we didn't play very long.  But Vera and Grady thought it was great!  They looked just like Ralphie and Randy.  




 Vera thought it was hilarious when Josh threw snowballs at her!



 Of course my little eater had to taste some snow...


Now...let's hope for some warmer weather to come our way soon!  This cold is the pits!  I am ready for the beach!

Ha, I had the same thought. People up North must be laughing at us but man it was COLD. Luckily, my kids only last about 20 minutes and were DONE!
