About Snow

Winter Wonderland


Snow! Winter just doesn't make sense unless there is the kind of winter storm that causes cancellations that force the whole family to stay at home, play games in front of the fire and sip hot chocolate! No winter is complete without the snow day that allows kids to stay home from school to sled ride and build snowmen.



Living in the south for four years only reinforced this opinion of mine. Although I appreciated the mild winter temperatures, I still could never quite reconcile to the snow "no show" syndrome that plagued Nashville. I'll never forget the year when it did, in fact, snow enough to cover the ground. Mac and Vovie wanted to go out first thing in the morning and play in it...but I told them to wait for a couple of hours; Alas! A "couple of hours" later and all of the snow was gone!!




This year, however, we have had our share of the white stuff!! We have already had five days off of school and have experienced sledding, snowmen, snow angels and hikes through the woods!


We've had SNOW much fun!!!
