A Snowy Weekend

This past weekend, it snowed in South Carolina. In December! That never happens. We knew there was a possibility of snow, but certainly did not get our hopes up. Then sure enough, big snow flakes started falling on Friday afternoon. All three of us kept looking out the windows to see just how much snow was coming down. Before we knew it, there was a blanket of white covering our yard, and the kids could hardly contain their excitement. Corey came home from work early and we bundled up (as well as we can; we are not very well prepared for snow around here) and fully embraced the winter wonderland outside.

Snow Day

Another of Colette’s firsts that has been skipped over? Her first snow day. Which was back in February. Colette was not impressed, but she tolerated the cold white stuff on the ground. Much like Cullen’s first and second snow days.

We only had snow on the ground for a few hours before it all melted away, but we all bundled up and had fun making snow angels, starting snowball fights, and trying to convince Colette it is fun to play with frozen water.

After we took all the cold we could handle, we headed inside for hot chocolate (which sadly, Cullen did not like) and snow cream. It was a pretty fun day, and fun to think back on. But if I’m being honest, one snow day a year is all we really need.
