It snowed in South Georgia!!!

It snowed today!! This happens so rarely in South Georgia, so when the meteorologists forecasted possible snow for us.....well, you can imagine how excited people down here get!

We were actually supposed to be in Troy, AL visiting my sister and her husband this weekend. However, our plans got thwarted when sweet little Claire woke up at midnight last night with croup-like symptoms. She and I spent about three hours at the pediatrician's office this morning. Kevin and I decided it would be best for us to post-pone our trip to Troy until everyone felt better.

It rained most of the day today.....and then about 5pm, it turned into snow! It was so pretty! We bundled the girls up to go out and see the snow. Here they are......do you think that we could get one more set of stripes in this picture?



The progression of this next collage defines Claire! She really wants to get the full effect of life.....and so she often times resorts to tasting it! I love the last picture....she was looking up at Kevin and grinning!

Chloe takes in everything in life, and we are sometimes amazed at the things she comes up with! Kevin made a snowball and showed it to her......and what did she do? She rared her arm back and nailed him in the leg with it! We laughed so hard! How did she know to do that? Maybe that's one of those things that kids just automatically know how to do.

And what's a snow fall without a little snowman as a souvenier? Chloe decided that he needed arms......I'd say he succeeded!

The girls really had so much fun. I'd say they had more fun that I thought they would! Also, one of the known "soothers" of croup is cold air. It was good for Claire to spend some time breathing in that crisp, cold air......good for her lungs and good for the soul!
