That time it snowed

Remember that random couple of days in January when it snowed in Alabama? Oh, yeah... I took some pictures of that and, now that it's almost Easter, perhaps its time to share them with you! :)

That Tuesday, was ugly. 
Cold. Rainy. Sleety. Did I say COLD!?! 
Everyone got out of school or off work early (around here), but there was no snow to play in. 
The sleet did accumulate quite a bit and looked like snow...kinda.


Right as we were getting Smalls to bed the flakes started falling! So we did what any decent parents would do for their little girl's first snow...layered up boots, jackets, and hats OVER footie pj's and went outside to play with the neighbors!


We went sledding from yard to yard and even walked to the bottom of the hill to watch the big boys try to kill themselves with a golf cart and inflatable raft. 

(A strategically placed snowflake ruined this shot.) 


I'm a big baby when it comes to the cold, so we didn't play too late. 
But some little girl was excited to wake up and get back out there!




Smalls had a great time playing with the big girls!


...and eating the snow!


(Which is what she is doing in most of the pictures that I took.)


She made an attempt at a snow angel, but wasn't impressed with the idea of laying down in it. 


 I'm thankful we live where this is a once every few years kind of event. 


All in all it was a great few days in the snow that ended with a lovely sunset!
