Snow Day in the Low Country

At approximately 5:50 on Feb. 12th, 2010 the low country got it's first significant snowfall in ten years. I'm glad we were here for it and that my girls were able to enjoy snow at their own home. It'll probably be ten more years before it snows like this again and I hope as teenagers my girls enjoy it as much then as they did now.

This is Katie Jo when it literally had just started to snow. And already trying to catch a flake!

What a beautiful site and we had no idea where it would go from here.

Just to see this little bit was so exciting. When it never snows where you live it's like a miracle when it happens.

This picture was taken at 6:30 and as you can see we quickly had accumulation.

After dinner we got serious with our snow suits!

Snow angels were on order

The neighbors came over and we put together our first snow man. We even had a carrot, thanks to our neighbors, for the nose.

Keep an eye on this palm. What a difference a night makes.

To see our home doused in snow was a majestic site. The silence of a snow filled existence is such beauty.

Sledding on a boogie board. On the low country could come up with this!

Our friends came over and the kids had a blast playing together.

Now it's gone and I'm not too sad about that! It was a special day that we won't soon forget!
