The Big Snow

On Monday morning we woke up to 6+ inches of snow! That's a lot for SC! I can only remember getting this much snow a few other times in my life. It's always so pretty and fresh on the first morning. It makes the whole day have a special feel--like a holiday.



These are the kinds of days that I used to love as kids. Jay took the kids out to play in the snow. They were excited to use their beach buckets to eat the snow, play basketball and baseball in the snow, go down the slide, make snow angels, etc. Jay is much better at playing in the snow than me. I'll take pictures and watch, but don't hit me with a snowball!





Catherine is catching on to my favorite part of playing in the snow: coming inside to drink hot chocolate and sit by the fire!
It's now day 3 and the snow is still here. Thankfully the sun is shining and melting some away today. We've been in the house for a long time! Snow in SC closes down everything to an extended period of time. It's like Christmas vacation #2.
