Snow!

Our Saturday morning in January started pretty much like any other. Max had an early bball game, so Mike headed out with him. The girls and I were getting typical jobs done when I heard "Mom! Snow!!" It had been flurrying the day before (and their teachers had been so awesome at pausing school and letting them get outside to enjoy the flurries), and I didn't expect too much else. The girls popped out with my phone for a few photos.

 Then the flurries turned into actual snow! At this point, we were all excited and I was so grateful we'd picked up snow clothes for the kids (we let go of all snow clothing when we moved to Florida and then gave them all snow clothes for Christmas in preparation for our trip to Utah). We pulled them out of storage and had a BLAST. Thankfully, by this point Max's game had ended and they were on their way back home. The roads were getting crazy, and it was good to get off of them sooner rather than later!

The day was a bit magical. The kids beamed with all of the snowman building, snow angels and snowballs. We were told this was the most snow Atlanta has had in about five years, so it was fun to enjoy it for the day (by Sunday it had completely melted!). So grateful it fell on a Saturday when things could be canceled, everyone wasn't commuting to work (or home from work). Grateful to spend time nature, connecting with God's creations!
