March 1st and SC is finally getting it’s first snow of the year. What a blast we’ve had. The snow was thick and beautiful as it fell Sunday night. Here’s some pictures from our excursions.
As it began to snow Sunday night….
About an hour after the rain turned to snow….
It didn’t take long for the snow to begin to stick…..
Poor southern kids, licking snow off shovels! We eat it any way we can!
Sometimes we just eat it off our pickup trucks….
After 30 minutes of snow baby girl decided she was ready for some hot chocolate and warm dry clothes…
You know the saying in the south….”If you don’t like the weather, stick around. It’ll change.”
As you can see by my blooming bush with snow on top!
The next morning was exciting as we had endured a night without power, snow, rain, sleet and freezing rain. This is what we found when we opened the door.
Soon we were all bundled up for some snow play, snowman building and a little sledding.
As the boys were in a full fledged snow ball fight baby girl was having a fight of her very own with a snow ball. This was the bottom of her snow baby. No doubt she has three brothers. If you can not get it to move, you kick it!!!
After lots of hard work the snow family was done.
Then it was off to sledding and swinging.
Sorry, no pictures of sledding but I was snapping with a friend’s camera and they are all on that camera.
Then it was back to the house for some MORE snow cream…
And that was our wonderful, wild and wet day in the only snow we’ve had this year. I did a million and a half loads of wet laundry. How do you guys who live up North do it?
We don’t get much snow in these parts.
Three inches was a BIG DEAL!
This weekend it’s supposed to be 70!
Gotta love it.
LOVE those pictures. Dang it, I didn't make snow cream…what a slacker mom. Looks like ya'll had such fun.
Thought about you last night when I was watching the Bachelor. What in the world?
Looks like they made up for a whole winters worth of snow in a day LOL! Great shots of their snow adventure and beautiful shots of teh trees and bushes. Wow…70 this weekend?? Nice!
Well, our snows really aren't all that wet. It's so cold that we just brush off the non-melting snow before we go inside, but the mud room floor is a bit damp. 🙂

Yes, too much laundry!!! I'm still trying to dig us back out of it.
Not a post I expected on YOUR blog! Cool though. I like the pictures of your daughter trying to eat the snow off the shovel and the car. And the picture of the melting snow too. Have fun in the 70 degree weather coming up? Could you send either some snow or some sun up to us when you get a chance??
Cathy
Your pictures!!!!
Looks like you had a blast!
So sorry you lost your power though!
Happy Day!
